Pros

Talented people. Good use of technology and innovation, and oppertunity to learn. Teams for the most part work well together. Hours and WFH balance is good. Compensation is good.

Cons

Management culture shift has caused lower morale. What have you done for me lately attitude. Jobs shifting offshore to reduce costs. Talented employees are moving to other companies.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your review. The pros you mention are all things we pride ourselves on delivering as part of the CME employee experience, so we’re glad to hear they resonated with you. While we have shifted some roles outside the US, we have done so to meet customer needs in region versus save costs, and the majority of our employees remain domestically-based. As for voluntary turnover at CME, it dropped in 2016 from 2015 and remains below available published benchmark data for the financial services industry. We wish you well in your future endeavors.
