Pros

good work life balance, great people to work with, flexibility, company has strong values and is working to become a more efficient work place

Cons

CME has some challenges though especially since there are a lot of people that have been there for awhile and do not necessarily add a lot of value. There is a lack of persistence in some areas as well as people become component

Pros

For me this place is awesome, first time in my life it does not feel like crapy corporate environment. Quite environment yet full of responsibilities to take care of. My team is awesome and I enjoy being part of it. Personal growth and education. Work-life balance. Benefits. Wellness Program. People.

Cons

As of now I don't feel like I can list any cons, time will tell, will update.

Good place to learn but IT is rapidly racking up bad karma

Pros

This is a great place to learn the financial IT ropes. Its a big organization but people are friendly and helpful. I've never seen the backstabbing here that is rumored to be at other orgs. Good benefits with subsidized gym on site. Budgets for IT are usually approved.

Cons

Consistently laying off respected employees for cost reasons. Moral goes down, people get back to work and try to forget and it happens again. Its obvious that they want to cut more but don't want to pay the severance checks. Then the grueling hours come and they wait to see who breaks. Someday this will crash something important. Lots of technical debt being incurred. Come and learn but don't get lulled by the music.
