Training & Personal Development at IMC Trading Australia

My direct manager is very supportive and is always open to feedback. We have a weekly one-on-one meeting to discuss about the projects we're working on, feedback on performance and other personal development stuff.

Managers are very open and honest, which fits into the company's culture of rewarding innovation and hard work. The company is very fast-paced, which means some managers have more experience than others.

My manager is great. He's very easy to talk to and gives me lots of opportunities to develop and grow in areas that I'm interested (which he makes sure that I am interested by checking with me). He's been a pleasure to work with

He sit right next to me. Not much barrier for communication. Feedback weekly (or whenever needed).

Managers are very accessible and all go through training

Managers are very accessible and are always moving throughout the office to catch up with people. We have regular one-on-one meetings with our direct manager and we are able to speak with other managers at any time.

I have a catchup every week with my manager where I can address any problems. However, my manager has often been away, on leave, or work from home. Also, they seem a little annoyed often when I have questions.

Very satisfied, just the right balance between hands on management and allowing me to grow.

#NAME?

Strong focus on self improvement, and emphasis on feedback. Management is extremely experienced and are great subject matter mentors.

My manager is great, and we work well together. That can't be the same for everyone here though.

Managers the whole way through the company are really good. I have been largely left to my own devices (which I like) but when needed they have been supportive.

Managers are very thoughtful and very well trained

They send you to Amsterdam or Chicago as part of the training and even if you're completely 'unprepared' for the technical and financial requirements, the grad training will get you up to speed. They also run ongoing training to make sure everyone's well equipped to do their work.

Seven weeks of training in two offices.

Several soft skills training throughout the year. Opportunities for formal technical training in relevant technologies, and regular informal presentations on tech and work within the company

All new trading and technology employees undertake the company's in-house global traineeship program which is spread across 2 of the global offices. It is hugely valuable to learning both the relevant skills and also the company specific systems and processes.

For all trader/developer new starters (including graduates and experienced hires) there's a 6 week training course. This runs in two different offices for 3 weeks each (for me it was Sydney/Chicago). We are always encouraged to keep our technical and communication skills up to date and we can expense courses we do. I also went through a 3 day general training course earlier this year on communication/personal skills.

Many opportunities to undertake leadership / communication training.
