My day to day role generally involves working on whatever task I am working on, this could involve writing C++ code, running tests, or doing some data analysis. Additionally there are some meetings sprinkled in throughout the day.

Pros and cons of working at Tibra Capital

Pros

  • The company culture is very collaborative, with many people happy to chat to help you learn things or hear your ideas.

  • Very flexible with hours.

  • Work-life balance.

  • Getting to work on my problem-solving skills and being surrounded by a bunch of smart people where I am able to learn a lot from the people around me.

  • Free lunch. Massages. In-work hours activities. The office location is on the beach.

Cons

    • Pay is low compared to other companies in this field.

    • It seems like there are many areas of the business you can do. However, you will have to put in the time first to work your way up.

    • Working with older and slower systems can get frustrating, with systems either breaking or... slowing down work.

    • It is getting a little crowded.

    • No real commitment [to sustainability].
