Pros

The ability to work for one of the best orchestras in the world was outstanding. They have a great benefits package along with solid retirement plans. The perks of being able to see the orchestra whenever I wanted was definitely a plus.

Cons

The senior management is stuck in the stone age. They refuse to listen to anyone with ideas. If it wasn't their idea, they don't want to listen. They also micromanage everyone-to the point of not even sending a single email without them reviewing it which in turn slows down efficiency.

Pros

The orchestra is one of the best, if not the best, in the world. The musicians and staff are extremely talented and very friendly. Compensation is very fair for the field and location. Generous PTO benefit. Strong ability to move up in the organization over time. The mission is excellent.

Cons

Depending on the department you work for, the hours can be very long and the work environment can be intense. Not a significant 403b company contribution or match.

Pros

The Orchestra is impressive and well regarded.

Cons

Work in silo, management is not talented enough to really be allowing of initiative. Some people have tried to lead change but in the end, this leadership will always go back to the same old had.
