It's fine. Not great.

Pros

Everything is clearly laid out. There's a defined policy for everything. So you don't have the petty issues that you can run into with family companies.

Cons

It's fine if you like the corporate world with NY big brother asking you to spend more time creating reports instead of generating revenue.

Over-worked

Pros

Great place to gain loads of experience. The pay is ok, and I appreciate the Performance Bonus.

Cons

Worked to death. The number or hours we are pushed to work are ridiculous. I am a mid-level employee that must work a minimum of 10+ hours OT M-F, then must work almost every weekend. And work every vacation at least 20% of my "Paid Time Off" . Performance Ranking: Although I rarely receive less than a "2" Ranking, I feel that the % of great employees forced into a "4" Ranking is not fair or representative of the actual level of work performed.

Couldn't pay me enough to stay

Pros

Worked with some brilliant people who cared for their colleagues and their work.

Cons

Too many layers of management, too few decision makers, poor strategic vision, no accountability, unable to execute on internal initiatives (especially on time or within budget). Too many poor leaders or leaders limited by upper management from being effective. Cronyism. Manual processes. No clear vision. Too many competing priorities and no clear direction of importance. Bonus focused on delivery, but not the quality or intelligence of the delivery, so managers were making bad decisions because their bonus would be negatively impacted if they did not deliver to their objectives, even if misguided.
