Bids trading - Hostile environment

Pros

CBOE pay is good. good vacations.

Cons

note this review is not for CBOE but Bids trading that got merged 2 years back. It has small company mentality. If planning to join bids, do not get fooled by big name CBOE. Bids trading culture is hostile. People yell at you in meetings. New joiners will experience favoritism. Poor management skills. Occasionally employee experience humiliations in meetings. In short, toxic work environment. People constantly push each other under the bus. Not worth your time, and the salary is on the low side. Very important note, if you get to join CBOE and not bids trading then GO ahead. CBOE is the best company to work with.

A once great institution ruined

Pros

They have all been erased in the last year.

Cons

The new CEO and his Make Cboe CME Again agenda have completely ruined the company. All the good employees have left for much greener pastures and the good ones who have stayed are now being pushed out. Senior management is actively trying to take the company back to 2017 when the entire revenue of the company was based on SPX and VIX volumes. Paused promotions this year to entice employees to quit. Ended remote work this year to entice employees to quit. Forced employees back in the office this year to entice employees to quit. Every decision made by senior management in the past year has been to entice employees to quit. Resorted to layoffs when they didn't hit the quote for amount of people to quit.
