Point72 Asset Management is a global asset management firm focused on delivering superior risk-adjusted returns.
Work can become repetitive - same coverage for multiple years at a time speaking to the same people Limited work life balance (but its a hedge fund so you should expect that going in) A lot of micromanagement/bureaucracy. Too many cooks in the kitchen overseeing work, can make the research process tedious
Not great work life balance
- Hours are brutal; 7 days a week for like 2-3 months - Team placement process can be a mess; teams churn frequently so it's tough to find someone
Longer hours but can vary by teams
