I worked at Citadel Securities for a number of years. They actually trade a lot more than just options, and the firm is wildly profitable. I also got to fly on the private jet several times, which was really freaking cool.

Problem is that no hedge fund generates a positive alpha persistently….

I really enjoy your content. Would you be open to sharing what the work environment is like at Citadel? Specifically, how intense is the day-to-day pressure, and how do you think about job security there?
