Pros

If you do not like results, but process. Chicago Mercantile Exchange is more as Chicago Meeting Exchange. a meeting is as a result. Very heavy hierarchy and your extreme dependence on your manager character. Its not enough just to be professional at CME. You have to be a player, you always have to please your manager extra. It is annoying. If they put you on a black list - you going to be fired.

Cons

They do not keep justice, they do not like results. Its not enough just to be professional at CME.

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.
