Pros

Most co-workers and peers are pleasant to work with, very cooperative, extremely helpful and very knowledgeable. The company has decent medical, dental and 401K benefits.

Cons

The Market Regulation Department is mired in bureaucracy and always in transition mode. Most CME Department's show little or no appreciation for good work or anyone who falls below the Managing Director level..

Pros

- Friendly working environment. - Slow-paced and relaxed. - Opportunity to work on high-impact financial software. Quite useful if you want to get into a trading firm later on.

Cons

- Limited skill growth capability (tools are severely locked down, etc) - Work life balance can be shaky sometimes since systems fail after 5pm, weekend, etc. - Documentation is terribly organized. - Not enough focus on engineering culture. Overall probably not the best place to stick around if you like exploring new skills, building from the ground up, taking ownership etc.
