Pros

Salary and bonuses are generous. On most teams, you can work from home occasionally.

Cons

Highly political climate Job happiness depends on your particular IT team. Our manager has "favorites" and isn't always honest with us. Moving to open space as they consolidate Chicago IT staff at 20 S Wacker location. It's being done to squeeze more staff into a smaller space. Most are not happy about it.

Pros

It was amazing! People, culture, projects. We had fun coming in to work.

Cons

Ever since I left CME, I keep hearing how bad things have become. You lost key people. Many of the ones that remain are NOT blind and are looking.

Pros

Used to be decent - some really good people to work with but always had problems with senior leadership. Great pay if you still have a job at the end of the day.

Cons

Too much cronyism with senior leadership. Most should be replaced.
