Pros

Most co-workers and peers are pleasant to work with, very cooperative, extremely helpful and very knowledgeable. The company has decent medical, dental and 401K benefits.

Cons

The Market Regulation Department is mired in bureaucracy and always in transition mode. Most CME Department's show little or no appreciation for good work or anyone who falls below the Managing Director level..

Pros

Great work life balance, relaxed atmosphere, good benefits and pay, strict 8-5: staying late is unheard of. The job is easy to relax in and collect a paycheck without doing much work

Cons

The company feels complacent. It is a monopoly basically in the futures industry. Very little drive to streamline or improve processes. Virtually no communication between departments. Little advancement opportunity, management is old and entrenched. Days become boring for lack of work. Only good for those without real ambition. Actively discourages ambition and dynamism.
