Pros

Perks like free lunch and free cab pickup and drop. Work life balance can be maintained. Work is decent most of the times, sometimes it's really bad.

Cons

Poor higher management both locally and globally. Work allocated can be better. Less politics in teams will be appreciated.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. With respect to your advice for management, we can assure you that the Bangalore Technology Center is regarded by CME leadership as a critical component of our technology infrastructure, on par with the operations we have across Belfast, London, New York and Chicago. We have more than 200 employees in Bangalore working in partnership with their colleagues around the world to globalize our business and better serve our clients through technology. That said, we encourage you to reach out to Human Resources via email with your specific concerns.

Pros

There are some well skilled, dedicated and like-minded co-workers to enjoy working with learning from. Salary is acceptable. Decent benefits.

Cons

Promotions seem to be too rarely based on the actual capability of an employee and seems more often to be based on sycophantic behaviour towards management. The skill level vs job title standard seems to be lower at HQ compared to other offices. Investment in external training opportunities for employees seems to be increasingly pinched and rationed compared to offerings from previous years. Some Dir level employees seem completely out of touch with the day to day operations/realities of the teams they oversee.

Thank you for your review. We couldn’t agree more that working here gives you the opportunity to collaborate with and learn from the industry’s best and brightest. With regard to your other feedback, we have a very rigorous promotion process in place to make sure criteria is consistently applied and our external training budget has not changed. We value hearing from our employees when it comes to making CME Group an even better place to work, so we encourage you to reach out to Human Resources with your specific issues or concerns.
