Overall Great Benefits; Culture Depends on Group

Business Outlook

Pros

Great benefits, including free health/dental, snacks at the office, free or discounted admission to every museum in NYC. Annual summer party on Randall's Island. Fairly generous maternity leave and dedicated facilities for nursing mothers.

Cons

Culture and work environment varies widely depending on what group you work for. Work in the wrong group and none of the benefits can make up for the bullying and demoralization you might experience.

Business Outlook

Pros

Excellent team, modern hi-tech office. Office conveniently located in the City. Great summer party. Open space structure so you can easily approach managers

Cons

Favouritism in the team, exceptional workload, very high attrition rate. Actual duties had nothing to do with the job description. Technically it was a customer service role and had absolutely nothing to do with project coordination. Efforts are not valued by the management.
