Not Bad, Not Great

Pros

Decent work/life balance, benefits are not terrible. Well respected company.

Cons

Supposedly pay is average relative to the industry, unless you started your career here in which case you are paid 10-20% less than others doing the same thing who came from other companies. You have to leave to get paid fairly. Firm keeps cutting more and more benefits Bonus calculations are opaque and it seems the company uses this to smooth earnings

CME Group Response

Thank you for your feedback. CME Group regularly benchmarks roles to the market to confirm the competitiveness of our pay structure. While each employee may have a different pay rate due to factors including individual performance or experience in the role, managers are always provided with competitive pay information when making compensation decisions. With regard to bonuses, funding of the pool is tightly aligned to CME’s cash earnings performance. While this is a non-public figure, we do share general company performance updates with employees and individual bonus targets and payout ranges are transparent. As far as benefits go, CME Group provides comprehensive health, retirement, wellness and other benefits, with 83% of our employees indicating that CME provides good coverage for them and their families in our most recent employee experience survey. We encourage you to reach out to HR or your manager with questions or to learn more.
