Pros
The workforce is relatively diverse, including a fair number of women in relatively high positions and are generally smart and fun to work with. Employees generally work well with other departments. Nasdaq permits many employees to work from home either part or full time.
Cons
The amount of work that is expected and the amount of pressure put on emplyees to complete that work can result to some very crazy working hours, often with no compensation provided. Their is an expectation that everything should be done perfectly, but management is not will to pay for the time it takes to achieve that goal. Employee turnover is relatively high because of the mismatch of expecations. Nasdaq expects their employees to be on call and on-line more or less 24/7.
