Pros

Great annual raises and large annual bonuses (like an extra paycheck). Small monthly bonuses based on individual performance ($25-100 per month). Weekly technical trainings make you an expert within months. Coworkers are very friendly and supportive, often meet up outside work and aren't rigid cliques. The company does a lot of big things right, and a lot of little things wrong. It's the best job I've had by age 30 and keeps me stuck here in NYC because of the pay and benefits!

Cons

Micromanaging from the top down. Petty policies, in denial of favoritism, misguided priorities, accusations of discrimination.

Pros

People in the department are nice so far and helpful

Cons

1) It's like a sweat shop...9 - 6 hours with 30 minute lunch break and two 15 minute breaks...I never had to deal with that before...always had an hour lunch with mini breaks in between. 2) What they don't tell you is that you don't have any holidays off that you would normally get to have the day off.. No 4th of July, Memorial Day, Veteran's Day, MLK etc... you only get one day for New Years, Thanksgiving, Christmas... 3) The office is closed on all the Jewish holidays, some days you will get paid and other days you won't. So if you don't have any PTO time on days where you won't get paid, you have to take a loss for those days. I have NEVER heard of anything like that before and I think that is something that should be told to you during the interview process... I have a big issue with that. 4) You have half day on Fridays but I heard they are going to get rid of it... Zero work-life balance at all... by the time you get home, you are tired from the day... very hard to adjust to working every day if you are used to a hybrid schedule.

Pros

You get off early on Fridays.

Cons

Very long days, micromanaging if you look at your phone or screen for a moment there is some one there to wag their finger. Women can’t wear anything that shows off shoulders or ankles, they didn’t mention that full time employees don’t get any benefits until three month in including no holiday pay. Holidays like Christmas you only get the day off but they close for Jewish holidays but you don’t get paid. Don’t bring food in that isn’t kosher. Only 30 min breaks for 9 hour work days????
