My experience was ok

Coordinator

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The people were nice and i really didnt have any issues with staff. Again, everyone was nice from my experience.

Cons

The pay is not enough for living in NYC. Specifically to getting bills paid alone not for life style just to pay the basics for survival. Then again it seems a lot of places are not paying enough to match rising costs etc.
