      Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us your feedback, we really appreciate it! We truly believe our employees are our most valuable asset, so it’s super important to us that our employees feel valued both at work and through the many benefits we offer. Development is also extremely important at Nasdaq, and we encourage our employees to look through the many learning and development programs we offer like our Nasdaq Mentoring Program, access to online soft skills training, various training seminars and other opportunities across all our offices. We do try to communicate these resources and opportunities to our employees, but we will make an effort to ensure our employees know these opportunities are available to them so they can take advantage of these resources.

      Pros

      The benefits package is hard to beat - 4% 401k matching, excellent medical, good vacation allowance, equity grants and an ESPP.

      Cons

      Those benefits come at a pretty significant price. There's no such thing as merit salary increases, your career is likely to stall, there's little in the way of advancement and no impetus by management to move people around the company to build their skill sets. Nasdaq talks a good game about corporate responsibilty, about ethics and culture, but you don't want to look too closely. Even stuff as basic as recycling doesn't happen in their US offices, and fiscal responsibility doesn't bear close scrutiny. New products are not bought on the basis of "this is the right tool for the job" - rather you get whatever an issuer makes. That includes the products available in the vending machines, billing and invoicing systems, 3rd party vendors who supply data or components for in-house products - everything. If an issuer makes it, then that's what you get, whether it is the best tool or the most cost-effective solution or not.

      Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback, and I’m sorry to hear this has been your experience. We are very pleased with the competitive benefits we are able to offer our employees, and we also give our employees development opportunities to help reach their professional goals. Corporate Social Responsibility is also very important to us, and we have waste and recycling receptacles in the common areas of our offices. We also signed the Parity Pledge at the end of last year, which states we will interview at least one qualified female candidate for all executive roles (VP and above), making us a Founding Corporate Member of Parity.org. Additionally, we are constantly exploring new technologies for our organization, and try to pick the tool that best suits our business needs and goals. If you would like to discuss further feedback, please reach out to me directly at Cassidy.Burke@nasdaq.com.

      Ability to travel to territories with major budget restrictions; decisions can be made in a timely manner when needed.

      Cons

      Quite a bit uncertainly given the upcoming purchase of certain Nasdaq assets to West Corporation
