      Pros

      Most of the people are wonderful. Also, there is a pension, and they are generous with regard to vacation time.

      Cons

      There is a great pay disparity among positions that makes little sense-easier, less complicated jobs often pay much more than jobs that require more skill.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your review. We agree with you that we have the best people in the industry working here, and we’re proud to honor their contributions to our business through our highly valued compensation and benefits program. With respect to your comments on pay, two factors drive the pay range for each job here: market data, meaning how the job is paid in the external market; and internal data, meaning how the job is valued within the company when compared to other CME Group positions. Base pay is regularly reviewed to maintain a current view of competitive market rates, with adjustments made as needed.

      Pros

      CMEGroup creates and adopts new technology to solve problems heretofore unseen in our industry without the risk of a startup.

      Cons

      Heavy regulatory burden by the Federal government - this does not impact new technology rollouts as much as maintenance of existing systems.
