Scare tactics used by management, not a lot of motivation or training provided, seen many people fired on the spot even after reaching their targets, acquire companies, but dont know how to integrate them successfully

Pros

IT vs Finance - If you come in with a few years of experience the salaries are fair but banks and other institiutions are better.

Cons

If you're in IT and want to learn about finance, forget itt, and if you have no or little experiance they will exploit you.

Pros

The workforce is relatively diverse, including a fair number of women in relatively high positions and are generally smart and fun to work with. Employees generally work well with other departments. Nasdaq permits many employees to work from home either part or full time.

Cons

The amount of work that is expected and the amount of pressure put on emplyees to complete that work can result to some very crazy working hours, often with no compensation provided. Their is an expectation that everything should be done perfectly, but management is not will to pay for the time it takes to achieve that goal. Employee turnover is relatively high because of the mismatch of expecations. Nasdaq expects their employees to be on call and on-line more or less 24/7.
