Wolverine Trading Reviews

For all the positive talk of the flat managerial structure, I find it odd that a key partner who managed my group never once spoke to me or introduced himself after five years. It was the kind of office where a key upper management person spent his days bouncing a ball and swinging a golf club past my desk. It's the kind of place where if you ask for assistance and you get a dirty look in response (as I did several times), you're not likely to approach that person ever again. Wolverine prides itself on its meritocracy, but that only extends to those deemed "favorites" by the short-sighted partners. It's the kind of the place where, on an annual basis, every employee must, distastefully, compose a secret review of a fellow employee's strength and weaknesses. It's the kind of the place that spends a fortune on its Christmas parties where less than one-third attend, if that's any hint of the "inclusive culture".

Very tough, regardless of your talent, to crack into Principal level (big bucks). Much of their current top management is of a foregone era. Maybe they were good traders in 2000-- many principals now are...well...useless to the company.
