Vantaggi
-Wonderful colleagues that are very passionate about the work they do and the communities which they serve. -A strong sense of satisfaction from my core values aligning with NYPL values/mission. This was severely lacking in my last job and I can already feel the difference this makes in my overall job satisfaction, -Actual work/life balance. Generous amount of leave time, including 3-4 weeks PTO, separate sick leave/time off, 2 floating holidays, 2 wellness days, and 11 paid federal holidays. - A variety of health insurance options and coverage begins on the first day of employment. Prescription drug, dental, and vision plans are also provided. -Pension plan available (NYSLRS) as well as a voluntary tax preferred savings vehicle 403(b).
Svantaggi
None yet (only 3 months into my new role with NYPL) but will certainly return to update this list should my opinion change! I'm sure there are different drawbacks experienced in different roles but as someone that left the defense contracting industry to join the NYPL I've never been happier in a job.
