Culture

The WincentWay

The ownership is real here.

We are going to become the best by doing things the right way. Every day. It shows up in what we believe, how we work, and what we share.

What we believe

Saythings as they are

Life is too short for politics or fluff. If something is wrong, call it out.

Trusteach other

Compensation, bonuses, PnL, and strategies are visible internally.

Topplayers only

Every new hire must raise the bar, or we do not hire.

Integrityis not negotiable

A handshake is sacred. Be the good guys in the market.

Shipfast. Ship often.

A strategy can go from paper to production in a day or two. Speed is the system.

How we work

You own your work end to end. No micromanagement. You figure it out. We support you.

It is OK to

  • Move forward with imperfect information.
  • Disagree with the CEO. He will think about it.
  • Take risks. You are paid to.
  • Work remotely.
  • Ask any colleague how anything works. Nothing is siloed.

It is not OK to

  • Wait days for feedback.
  • Hide behind process.
  • Protect turf or play politics.
  • Make the same avoidable mistake twice.
  • Coast. The bar rises every quarter.

Compensation is public

Every salary, every bonus, and every PnL number is visible internally.

#Policy · Detail
01

Flat PnL share

Quants and traders get a fixed percentage of their PnL. No politics in how it is split.

02

Monthly PnL summaries

You see how the business is doing, not just your own work. Shared internally.

03

Bonuses twice a year

Team leads spend a full week on attribution. We try to be fair. We admit when we get it wrong.
