Business outlook
Pros
Industry leader, lots of opportunities exist. The pay is competitive and the benefits are also pretty good. The people are generally nice. There is more of a buerocratic feel than at some other companies I've worked for.
Cons
Seniority generally matters quite a bit in promoting. Generally I did not find much to complain about at CME Group. After the Board of Trade merger there were substantial layoffs, but those were caused by the merger and do not seem to carry over at all.
