Pros

Global marketplace covering all asset classes: fixed income, equities, foreign exchange, commodities, energy and metals. Incredible opportunity to learn about the markets. World class clearing house. Great benefits and competitive compensation.

Cons

Extremely political organization. Almost impossible to be promoted to a senior level unless you make politicking a full time job. Very siloed. Not a lot of work life balance. Somewhat cynical culture. Board of directors way too large. Meeting for meetings sake is out of control.

Pros

Great company very profitable. Mostly good people who know how to run a business and make a profit. Excellent growth opportunities in foreign markets. Diverse product portfolio and keen interest investing in growth startups.

Cons

Just one thing that worries me is they are the last exchange company to have a true monopoly on trade execution, clearing and market data in one silo. Reminds me of where the CBOE was in 1999 or where AT&T was in the last 70's.
