Optiver hires in Amsterdam with comparable compensation to top US companies.
- sabas123 5y agoOptiver works in a vastly different and super tiny sector (in employee count) which is renowned for having higher salaries than any other sector (including tech) and is a massive outlier.
- saddlerustle 5y agoYes, though there's also a couple other examples. In my experience the biggest barrier to europeans getting fairly compensated is just that people believe it's impossible and so don't seek out the industries that do.
- Avalaxy 5y agoUnrelated to this thread, but I always found 'optiver' such a weird name for a Dutch company. Sounds to me like "optiefer". "Optiefen" is a Dutch way of saying "fuck off".
- Marciplan 5y agoA Dutch person wouldn’t be “able” to read Optiver in a Dutch way, though :p
- TimonKnigge 5y agoOPTIe VERkoop :-)
