Gale Mitchell Castro
Senior Accounting Specialist
Everything we do at GlobeFlex to run the firm operationally, I pretty much have a hand in. I deal directly with the operations team on portfolio reconciliation for billing and also on the main portfolio accounting for our pooled funds.
Prior to coming to GlobeFlex, I was exposed to very distinctly different money management firms which gives me the perspective to contrast what we have here to more traditional firms. The distinction shows up in how the company is managed and also the philosophy of the role of employees. Here, team members are responsible for their bottom line, meaning they are going to have to come up with better ways of doing things. Whatever your job is, you need to be efficient and responsible for the "product" you are putting out. As a result, it's a much more friendly and open environment. Rather than everything being shot down to the employees, it goes straight up to management so you feel like you are heard, that you have an effect on what happens and how you are able to do your job. The net gain is lots of productivity and no stagnation.
When you are in a firm with layers, it takes six miles to move the huge ship as opposed to a little boat that you can turn around in no time. GlobeFlex works hard to preserve the feeling of flat management for that very purpose, to make sure that everybody really steps up and says, "I'm going to do the job that needs to be done here and I'm going to provide GlobeFlex with everything I can think of that will make life more efficient on a daily basis". So that flexibility is very evident, with technology being a big part of the efficiency. Everything is automated. We have very technically savvy people here, from the investment team to the tech team all the way over to us accountants.
Keith Morris
Senior Accounting Associate
My main focus at GlobeFlex is doing accounts payable and more of the accounting-based side of things. I like the position because I get to learn all the different aspects of the company. My goal is to focus on the task at hand while getting a handle on the whole spectrum of how the company works and know it as well as I can.
GlobeFlex has managed to build efficiency through good communication rather than falling into the micro-management trap. We have a very flat structure with lots of professional room to grow. I don't have someone looking over my shoulder; rather, I'm given a project and I figure out how I want to best do it and get it done right. My accounting background gives me the problem-solving skills but my strongest skill is that I'm a good communicator. I fit right in here. Issues are easily addressed in large part because there's good rapport between all the employees. I'm very patient and can sit down and talk to people and work out whatever has to be resolved.

Partner, Head of Investment Operations
Tammy Johnson joined GlobeFlex in 2006 and was promoted to Head of Investment Operations shortly thereafter, having ultimate responsibility for exceeding our clients' operational and reporting expectations.

Mila Bakardi
Senior Account Administrator
Operating systems don't ever replace people. There are always human controls in place. If programming were always correct and perfect, we wouldn't need a person to look into it. But we all know we're human and even the best programmer makes mistakes. We need to be able to troubleshoot the output and get ahead of any problems.
Automated systems provide crucial speed and efficiency. Trade order management, for example, is a great system that gives us inter-day updates from brokers. It also monitors our cash to be sure we're not over-buying or over-selling, for example. As long as the systems and technology are always advancing, we can accommodate a growing number of accounts and new product areas.
Our trade order management system takes away all the post-trade repetitiveness and the human error that goes with it. It's close to being mistake-proof. Now the investment team has the time to focus on the things a computer can't do -- the conceptual areas, the analytics, and the what-ifs. Because your mind isn't bogged down with a hundred different details in all directions, you don't have to put thinking on hold.

Craig earned his B.S. in Business Administration from California State University, Monterey Bay.
Christopher Ying
Performance Analyst
I have been in the business since 1999, and definitely have seen the contrast between a corporate culture and what we have here at GlobeFlex. Coming from a hierarchy where you couldn't question the powers that be versus our collegial team, where people really work together as a team instead of searching for approval all the time. The contrast is huge. So how does a firm like GlobeFlex with this few people manage to make it possible? It comes from the top, not using their egos, showing the example of wanting to achieve the goals and not playing the blame game. We pretty much interact with everyone here, that's the thing about a small firm.
At GlobeFlex, it's definitely an ongoing learning experience, which is wonderful. You're not pigeonholed where you can't learn. My operations background has helped me to assist the rest of the operations team when needed. Having a strong pricing background has helped me understand how a security would actually price in the market and use this information for performance purposes. I now handle performance, corporate actions, and have jumped in to help the rest of the team with NAV reconciliations and FX trades. After a couple of years to master certain aspects in operations, you'd go stagnant without variety and new opportunities.
I like to be very methodical. Early on I took on the task of converting the performance procedures to the internal wiki site. I also built macros to streamline the existing customized reporting needs. My simple goal is to make everything perfect and make everyone happy. I also like the ease of conversation here. While it's easier to send email answers to questions, it is nicer to walk over to a team member's desk and talk to them.
Furio Penteriani
Director of Information Technology
At GlobeFlex, our goal is to apply technology to any function - investments, trading, operations, client service, everything -- verging on the routine. To automate correctly, at the point of change, so you don't have to reinvent later on is the creative challenge of my job. The other part is day-to-day systems evolution: maintenance, no down time ever, and keeping our technological advantage.
I saw complexity close up as a technical account manager working with the IT departments of various Fortune 500 financial institutions. What is different about GlobeFlex is that we put IT at the core of our firm, not on the periphery. From the beginning, our process was geared to sophisticated customization, as opposed to the bandage-and-rehaul firedrill embedded in more traditional firms.
Our streamlined platform is as good as any out there but advantaged with tremendous ease of use at the front end. I am familiar with all the systems that make us run, making it possible to key in and design a structured plan of attack to increase efficiency. My job is to smooth out the whole system - to keep it well oiled and responsive to the demands from a creative culture, as well as the steady stream of requests from our clients.
Essentially, what the portfolio management and operations teams take for granted, I take care of. In contrast to Rick whose total concentration is on research side of the technology equation, my mandate is broad. I sit at the hub, between investing and trading, close to compliance and accounting - which gives me an ear to what's coming up in the queue, an insight on where we might customize, an ability to think ahead to the consequences for change. Because of our team structure, it is easy to reach a decision and once that's done, we execute. Then it's on to the next innovation.
