Fortress-Investment-Group-LLC

Fortress is by corporate standards a small company. This is both a plus and a negative.
The size of the company made for an interesting challenge and required providing support to traders, admins and executives. Our helpdesk, desktop support team worked well together as we provided all levels of support. We did not have an overnight shift so monthly 24/7 on-call was mandatory. Small companies have small budget making technical support more difficult than is should be. The weekly support meeting were the best part of the week and very helpful because we discussed all the issues we encountered throughout the week and we were able to share resolutions to specific problems. The most difficult part of the job was related to the company size. Because it was small many employees knew us on a first name basis and did not hesitate to contact use directly, even when we were home and not on-call. All management contact was done through supervisor so we never communicated with them directly. The most important thing I learned was the value of team work. The job would have been impossible without it.

Working as a Full-Stack Software Engineer with this company has been a truly rewarding experience. From the start, the team created a welcoming and collaborative environment where ideas are valued and innovation is encouraged. I’ve had the opportunity to work on exciting, high-impact products that challenge my skills and allow me to grow both technically and professionally. The communication within the team is excellent, and everyone is always willing to help and share knowledge. What stands out most is the positive atmosphere — people genuinely care about doing great work and supporting one another. I’m grateful to be part of such a motivated and talented group, and I’ve really enjoyed contributing to the company’s products and success.

Fortress employees tend to be very intelligent, and everyone has a phenomenal work ethic.  Above all, management cultivates an environment where everyone feels valued.  There's little training, however.  You're expected to jump right in on day one running, and for me, that was perfect.  The only reason I'm considering leaving is because I feel that I've outgrown my current role, and nowhere to go; I've essentially hit the ceiling.  They are, hands down, the best company I've ever worked for.

Fortress Investment Group is an excellent employer in the financial services industry.  At Fortress, time management, meeting deadlines, and anticipating and creating solutions to challenges is paramount.  The culture at Fortress is relaxed and professional - you are expect to get your job and responsibilities done and are treated as an adult.  Micro management is not present.  The people are the most enjoyable part of my day.

This firm has tons of opportunities for aggressive professionals who are looking to get experience under their belts. The only problem is that, the culture is enforced by management and the vision of the users can be unrealistic. I work 60-70 hrs per week and can never truly disconnect from my responsibilities.

What is the best part of working at the company?
I loved it and I miss it there. It was a great experience for me. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Typical work things that I apply to all work places 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It's great. They do a lot of things that contribute to making you want to work there, long term.

• Maintain accurate account of inventory including hedge positions on Foreign Currency.
• Responsible for the daily reconciliation of Prime Broker, Foreign Exchange breaks.
• Responsible for execution support, Trade Allocation including Equities, Swap Transactions, Futures, Fixed Income, and Foreign
Exchange trades.

IT priorities are all over the place - no clear direction, completely confliting directives.  Three CTO's, too many captains running the ship.  Success is on the back of your peers, so very competitive and back-stabbing is common.

Had an incredible experience as an intern with Fortress Investment Group. The program was planned with a lot of thought and most employees were more than happy to work with the interns to help them thrive in the program

Their work philosophy is to run things out of FEAR and not mutual respect and professionalism!!
Their way of getting things done is to make you live in fear of losing your job!!
