I received an offer from a quant fund. My offer letter doesn’t explicitly state my role/ title, that it’s NY based, and it’s full-time. The benefits aren’t specifically outlined either, just a blanket statement on I’m eligible. When I connected with the recruiter he advised the company doesn’t publicize titles, it’s a flat org. I find it very strange it’s not in my offer letter. Does this sound normal to others?

Hedge funds aren’t big on the whole title thing. “Analyst” is a title for 25 yr olds or 52 yr olds. If u care so much about titles and ceremony, maybe this industry isn’t for you.

Second this

Not normal. Totally reasonable to press for more detailed offer letter and benefits

What was the advertised job title in the posting when you applied ?

Have an offer from a dream company but I'll need to go in at a lower level. Knowing that I can bring a lot of value to the company (read- I know my worth), I negotiated with the hiring manager to have a level/comp review 6 months after employment. If I hit all my goals (ie, prove myself) within that time frame, I'll get a promotion and salary adjustment.
QUESTIONS:
Should this be in writing in the offer letter?
How detailed should it be? I assume I won't know what goals to set till I start...
