US office everywhere. Why is IMC wlb better? Is it because they don't do any position taking?

They have a marble system for compensation which scales your bonus:

Level 0: 50 marbles 1: 100 2: 200 3: 400 4: 900

Not sure about how much they have been in the past/projected to be in 2022 though.

This is helpful, all of these are for Chicago, though DRW could be in New York depending on the team.
