I didn't really like their offices ngl...looked stressful

#

trading firms probably ain't it for me

manic wraith
#

haha the trading floor gave me claustrophobia

#

money's good tho

and they said the swe floor is the same

tbh if I ever apply there again it'll prob be in research and not in swe
