Pros

Very smart people working at CME group. The company atmosphere is really friendly as well as hopeful. I would recommend anyone that gets the opportunity to work here to take it.

Cons

Some of the teams seem to be overstaffed. Verbal communication seems to be lacking in some areas of the company. Not many cons though.

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.
