I wouldn't recommend working at ICE/NYSE - Anonymous employee Intercontinental Exchange Employee Review

Pros

- It's one of those places where if you're interested in the Exchange Industry and want to learn what goes on at a place like ICE/NYSE, it's good to try it for six months to a year at most and then go elsewhere. You can certainly use it as an experience-building/educational opportunity if anything. - Work/Life Balance was decent.

Cons

- Below average compensation and not much benefits. - Little to no investment in continuing education/growth of employees. Very rarely have I seen this happen here. - Not much team spirit/camaraderie. Boring and predictable to be honest. If you like being in a bubble and sticking to set routine stuff with job security as long as you 'stay in your lane', then ICE/NYSE may be the perfect place for you. - Nearly non-existent career growth (Not saying it's impossible, but it's incredibly difficult to get that). Despite having seen signs of attempting to improve (Once in a blue moon), at the core they're still highly political, top-heavy, have tons of favoritism and backdoor dialogues, and just breaks promises/hopes.

Pros

A very distinct culture of gritty, brilliant individuals. Very generous compensation. Lean org structure with access to the senior most leaders.

Cons

Not a company for those who aren't self starters. You will thrive here if you are diligent and independent.

Pros

Giant international corporation with unlimited resources. Multiple locations around the country and the globe with tons of jobs that are open for internal transfer (with some considerations). Generally high pay range.

Cons

Giant international corporations treat you as an unlimited resource. They use "Unlimited PTO" model for Sick and Vacation time, which I feel is a misnomer and a disingenuous concept as a whole. Unrealistic fixation on making employees use AI with no clear plan or direction on how it should happen.
