I had two stints at a hedge fund, one a hedge fund supplier.

The fake self promotional bullshit is so tiring. I quit as a result of this. It's the same as big tech, not any different.

Jane Street SUPPOSEDLY follows a flat hierarchy which has less of these games. I'm not sure how true it is.

The way I think about it: you hire people who are literally self driven and then you constrain them for no reason just to make other people feel in control.

Or maybe I'm just not a good employee. My first job ever told me I'm a horrible employee.
