Pros

Used to have a good work dynamic where they truly cared about the employees and in return built a system of trust and hard working individuals. All went away when new CEO joined.

Cons

Profit is their only motive now. Total lack of care for employees.

Pros

Excellent 401(k) match Great memories

Cons

Unpopular new CEO Major budget restrictions Recent reductions in benefits Role instability (as in suddenly eliminated or remote statuses suddenly revoked) Huge culture changes, demoralized employees Issues with employee churn A year or two ago, I would have given rave reviews of Cboe's humanity and sense of responsibility and how passionate everyone was about their work. Now it's just like every other white collar office.

Pros

Colleagues are talented, professional, and thoughtful. A previous commitment to DEI means Cboe has a more diverse workforce which makes it a stronger organization.

Cons

The new CEO is a living, breathing, disinterested cliche. And his disinterest in regular humans is permeating all levels of the organization. People who can leave are, including senior leadership. Previous commitments to DEI have evaporated and salaries are stagnant. Internal career opportunities are rare. They recently announced that this year's annual promotion cycle would be moved from February to October. This is an organization being purposefully trimmed from within. The employee attrition is not only acceptable, but is most likely by design.
