  Is your top trading firm a bank? If not, I am confused which part of my comment is "not true at all". Also, $120k pro-rated is about right for what top tech companies are paying so it sounds like you just happened to not get those offers.

    You're right. I argued against something totally unrelated to what you said. The places I'm talking about are not banks.

    Is there any way that I can privately chat with you? I will soon have to decide whether to get into HFT or traditional SWE work. I have a good idea of what a traditional SWE career path entails, but HFT is quite obfuscated (from my position).

      Can you respond to this message with an email address or put one in your profile? Feel free to use a temporary email address, but I won't say anything controversial anyway as I'm not interested in losing my job.

          Sent you an email. I'm not going to reveal anything proprietary, but happy to answer any general questions.
