Financial Firms Flock to Miami Luring Employees with Sun, Lifestyle, Despite Traffic Woes

Citadel employees are enjoying Miami's sunny weather, outdoor lifestyle, and slower pace compared to cities like New York and London.

The influx of financial firms is rapidly changing Miami's professional landscape. Employees feel a sense of excitement about contributing to the city's growth.

Access to activities like yoga, tennis, biking, and the beach allows employees to maintain an active, healthy lifestyle.

Miami is heavily car-dependent and plagued by traffic congestion, which takes some adjusting to. But the metro area also offers walkable neighborhoods.

Employees with young families are attracted to Miami's child-friendly amenities like parks and playgrounds. Some are concerned about demand for spots at private schools.
