Hires are placed across the firm's five business segments – Institutional, Retail, Commercial, Payments, and Corporate Functions – into roles such as software engineering, cybersecurity, IT governance and compliance, product management, UX design, and operations. Early-career postings span more than a dozen cities globally, including New York, Chicago, Miami, London, Singapore, Hong Kong, Bangalore, Tokyo and São Paulo, visible on the intern and new-grad job filter. The two-track structure means an undergraduate is choosing between a summer test-drive in the penultimate year and a direct entry path after graduation; the segment breadth means the application decision is as much about which part of the firm – commodities, FX, futures, payments – as which job title.

The firm operates across five business segments – Institutional, Retail, Commercial, Payments and Corporate Functions, per its early careers hub – covering physical commodity hedging, futures clearing, FX, equities, fixed income, and global payments rather than a coverage-banking or pure broker-dealer scope. It climbed to #42 on the 2025 Fortune 500, up from #66 the prior year, on revenue that rose roughly 20% to about $4.1 billion. For an early-career applicant, the prioritisation question is whether multi-asset, physical-commodity-adjacent finance with growing US futures scale is the career environment to optimise for, rather than the bulge-bracket IB or equity-research route.
