Stay away from this place. They will rescind their offer two weeks before you start your job - Postdoctoral Fellow Mount Sinai Health System Employee Review

Pros

Located in Manhattan, NY Easy recruiting process

Cons

If you hate NYC, it is not the place to work certainly. But most important thing is they treat their postdoctoral fellows like a piece of nobody. They pay them minimal wages and the administrative staffs are very mean. The administrative staff has the power over the PI (who is oversea on vacation) to rescind the offer two weeks before their job start and even persuade PI not to sponsor visa when PI has already promised it to the candidate. While all this should happen much sooner if administrative staff has any concerns before they issued the offer letter to the Candidate for the PI. It felt like administrative staffs are actually the ones who runs the place not the PI. They don't care if the offer letter is a legal binding contract indeed and left all the mess for candidate to clean up such as past job opportunities after accepting their offer, paid housing lease, terminated current housing lease and moving arrangement deposit and etc. As the matter of fact, none of the postdoctors I contacted in this hospital ever worked longer than 2 years raised a big red flag to me.

Pros

salary pay instead of hourly so you still get the same paycheck on a month you took vacation. good for new grads to get experience with chronically sick patients.

Cons

PA leadership is unsupportive and the hospital admins care more about patients who have donated money to the hospital. pay is low compared to NYC PAs as a whole. and patients’ behavior is a problem.
