Thank you for your recommendation. We appreciate you sharing your feedback. With respect to your comments on tuition benefits, our education assistance program remains twice as generous as the industry average. Furthermore, no changes have been made to our award-winning 4Wellness Program. It continues to be a highly valued program that can save eligible employees up to $480 a year in medical premiums and hundreds more dollars in additional incentives.

Good, but not great place to work

Pros

CME's work life balance is great. Employees are smart and dedicated. Comp is very competitive and benefits, particularly the pension and stock, are very competitive.

Cons

Siloed organization that talks about collaboration and accountability but doesn't follow through on it. There is bad behavior - backchanneling and sabotage - at some of the highest levels of leadership. Employees are rewarded more for time in role than performance, so if you value promotion due to performance, you might find this environment challenging. Investments are spread too thin across too many priorities, making it hard to see/feel like there is progress.
