Pros

Great variety in the work they do, and they love tech solutions. Really well structured as a big corporate from an employee perspective with ability to travel, and transfer. The pension, insurance and other bits are very healthy too.

Cons

This isn't a challenge unique to CME, but as a company headquartered in Chicago then expect decisions to be made there. If you are used to being more autonomous with regards to making the calls in your jurisdiction then be aware that it isn't the way this is structured.

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.
