      Pros

      There are some very talented individuals at CME Group. Lots of fun and cool technology to work with if you are placed on a large project.

      Cons

      Developers are expected to be on call twenty four hours for support of systems. Fun once in a while but can quickly become too much if you are working on a downstream systems. Endless data changes will keep you beyond busy.

      Pros

      - Friendly working environment. - Slow-paced and relaxed. - Opportunity to work on high-impact financial software. Quite useful if you want to get into a trading firm later on.

      Cons

      - Limited skill growth capability (tools are severely locked down, etc) - Work life balance can be shaky sometimes since systems fail after 5pm, weekend, etc. - Documentation is terribly organized. - Not enough focus on engineering culture. Overall probably not the best place to stick around if you like exploring new skills, building from the ground up, taking ownership etc.
