Vantaggi

A gem of an office space, adorned with a talented and well-intentioned team, for the most part. The company does, generally, very high level work.

Svantaggi

The company exhibits a pattern of nepotism in the hiring and favoritism in the promotion, where certain individuals receive preferential treatment leading to disparities in standards, occasionally not based on merit. Transparency at senior level, though improved over the past few months, is still lacking, evidenced by secrecy surrounding crucial decisions, that employees suffered last year. This contributed to a general feeling of negativity regarding the safety of the job and the company as a whole in the future. While the company espouses diversity and equity, the actions and profiles of senior leadership frontally contradict these values. Neglect of compensation and time-off updates within the local market challenges a healthy work-life balance, particularly in a city like NY, where 2 weeks off a year is increasingly rare. Last minute approaches to deadlines suggest a lack of coordination in management. Alarmingly high percentage of Project managers with despotic personality traits. This led to the resignation of multiple employees. Bonuses or out-of-the-ordinary incentives are nonexistent.
