Cboe Global Markets Reviews

Pros

A nearly limitless ability to take on responsibility and grow, learn new technologies, and make a difference. The team is very collaborative, happy to mentor, and I find everyone open to new ideas and constructive feedback. You can find yourself working on high impact projects very early on in your time at the company. I've been able to accomplish a lot in a relatively short time. Management creates an inviting culture...

Cons

Given that the company is in financial services, the work can be stressful in that mistakes can have a big impact. As the company has grown, we have more meetings than we used to, but I do feel like there is an effort to keep them tight and useful.

Moving past integration pain which can be challenging and seeing lots of positives for our future. In Chicago we have a cafe with baristas and s full snack and game lounge all for free. Recently had a nice happy hour on site that was nice. Company participated in community events which I like.
