      Pros

      The exchange is esteemed in Chicago. Great bonuses.

      Cons

      The executive management is trying to change the company culture & mindset. However, many of the forward thinking, newer employees, early in their career at CME have to report to middle managers that are stuck in the 1980's. There is a you are welcome for working here attitude, new ideas are met with contempt. Flexible working arrangements that tech. companies offer are out of the question. These are direct quotes: "I'm too old to change." " I'm riding the CME gravy train".

      Pros

      Strong engineering culture with exposure to large-scale financial systems, distributed architecture, and production-critical platforms. Good opportunities to learn modern cloud, performance, and reliability engineering.

      Cons

      Bureaucracy and internal politics can sometimes outweigh technical merit. Employees who take ownership or challenge inefficiencies may face delayed recognition, unclear growth paths, and shifting expectations, leading to frustration and disengagement over time.
