How is working for Jane Street different from working at an investment bank?
At Jane Street, there aren’t formal hierarchies or job titles, and everyone works for the growth of the firm, rather than their individual business group. We don’t have captive customers, so we have to win by being better than the competition every day. And we’re still small enough that there are countless unexplored opportunities; we’ve always been in the position of having more trading ideas to pursue than people to execute them.
