SMB Capital vs T3 Trading Group

I have applied to both SMB Capital and T3 Trading Group. SMB Capital apparently has a great training program but on the SMB Capital website it says "SMB is a division of T3 Trading Group, LLC, a CBSX broker dealer. SMB is not a broker dealer and all of its traders are registered members of T3 Trading Group, LLC." I posted the link below.
A friend of mine traded with T3 and told me these guys are pretty legit. Also T3 offers health and Dental benfits, I didn't see anything about that on SMB's website, do they offer the same deal seeing that they are supposed to be the same company.
the question is, which one of the firms is better to go with? Even though they share the same floor at one state street plaza.

Haha @ SMB Capital in before wallstreetwarriors references. As to how good they are there is a thread about it somewhere on this site search top right. Otherwise I have nothing to add.

The answer to your question is 1) network 2) get involved 3) beef up your resume 4) repeat -happypantsmcgee WSO is not your personal search function.

Their model of prop trading, especially just equities = tough life. Discretionary style of day trading stocks is being replaced by algos.

Schonfeld is the king of this industry and owns several shops. Check out this letter he sent to traders last year: http://articles.businessinsider.com/2010-07-06/wall_street/30008584_1_t…-trading-trading-markets

Just make sure you don't go to a firm where you have to pay for training or deposit your own capital. Make sure they will give you a decent amount of buying power. Ask about a draw too...

 

all prop shops needs to be registered under a b/d; they are two separate entities under one b/d. Wall Street Trading, Capital Traders Group, and Lower East Side Trading are under WTS.
