The environment is purgatoric - Quant Data Analyst Blockhouse Capital Employee Review

Coming from a big corp - this was quite an adjustment for me. Lots of moving parts - wearing lots of hats outside my JD - what was a dev role turned into a fullstack :P But I was really enjoyable. The owners and coworkers are on a really solid mission. I was only here for a short contract, but really can see this team moving in the right direction.

Not for the everyday worker...... high intensity , hours can be long, super chaotic if you are not use to a start up. But , I will say the chaos is at least very will communicated and address early - so even if there is an elephant in the room, everyone at least knows about it - and do strategize how to move forward.

This job could work for you if you've got no conscience. You actually could make money, more than you'd expect! I know a few people who did. But this kind of scheme won't last long. If this thing blows up and the company, the CEO goes down, everybody in it will go down and you might end up in jail!

The CEO is running a Ponzi scheme and I hope that people start seeing it! Writing this review would be one way to warn people to avoid throwing their money in this company! All of management knows about this as well as the traders and they are trained to lie without even blinking! Those who aren't comfortable to lie, those who actually try to uphold their morals, won't last even for a month! The turnover of employee is really high, but the company was still able to find people who share the same attitude they do, which is the lack of conscience! What they're doing is clearly unethical if not illegal, which make them criminals!
