Pros

Work life balance is good. The hours are not very long and there is almost never deadlines that require after hours work. The people that work there are smart, nice, and relaxed. The software is cool can be used for good stuff.

Kontras

They do not encourage learning. No one can use the internet not even for research of to go to finance.com for example to learn about current events in risk or regulations that apply to your work there. There is no communiation from senior management about what is going on. You just have to wait and see. You get no feedback on how your career is progressing at QRM

Pros

Compensation is lower than some financial firms in Chicago, but comparable or better than other firms with similar workloads. The work/life balance is quite good. Standard 45-hour week, and almost no pressure to put in more time. I never received resistence when asking to use my vacation time. On the technical side, QRM does make an effort to support using newer technologies. There are some very talented developers and technical managers here.

Kontras

It's a pretty flat organization, but I was still very isolated from senior management. You receive pretty much 0 information about how well the company is performing. Draconian Internet access policy. Raises and bonuses are still around, but they are not nearly as impressive as a few years ago. Requirement to fill out time cards that add up for 45 hours a week (a bit weird for a non-billable salaried position). Lots of talent has left and QRM is slow to replace, if they replace at all. Relies almost exclusively on recruiters for new talent, which greatly limits the talent pool. The review process never puts you in contact with the people who actually decide your raise/bonus. On the technical side, QRM also has some technical managers who aren't keeping up with industry best practices. Many make decisions to get things done quickly, instead of getting things done correctly. Some of the developers are also pretty mediocre. QRM feels like a company on it's way down, and senior management seems to have no desire and/or ability to change anything to stem the bleeding.
