      Very Corporate and Cheap

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Job Security, Name Recognition, Good hours (at least in my role), Good Bonuses and Benefits

      Cons

      Upper Management make changes often without ever looking at efficiency of their employees. Little to no raises, poor management in general, no boost to employee morale. Work-horse mentality. Little to no job growth opportunities.

      Every year getting better

      Managing director

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Been working at Nasdaq for 6 years. The experience varies a lot across offices, but employees in general are convivial, like working together and have a positive outlook on life. Executive Management used to be apparently indifferent to the needs of employees, but the level of respect and helpfulness has steadily grown. I feel proud to work for Nasdaq. The company uses macs and PCs, and use both iphones and adroids for mobile. It doesn't ever feel like we're working in the stone age.

      Cons

      The vast majority of business lines require responsible stewards, not inventors or disruptors. However there are pockets of innovation here and there that a lucky few get to enjoy. That innovation, unfortunately, is often stifled by red tape and endless appraisals of "profitability", even for nascent products that have not come to market. It is the downside of a very conservative company, although this also means that the stock price does pretty well.

      Good company

      Service account manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      They have invested a lot of money in next gen service offerings, waiting to see how it all turns out. They pay well, no quota, opportunities for bonuses, cool people.

      Cons

      Very chaotic place to work. Many internal requirements in order to keep reports accurate.
