Pros

The small office environment really worked for me initially

Cons

Benefits and pay are both lacking. Technology is lack luster. High turn over. No advancement opportunities. The culture is such that everyone is out for themselves.

Pros

I worked for GNY’s New York City office for roughly ten years. It’s a middle-of-the-road satisfactory company for which to work. Nothing great and nothing awful.

Cons

Shortly after the implementation of the company’s Job Performance Review process (with a grading system of 1 to 5) it was made clear to us in management around 2013 in a meeting that, we shouldn’t be inclined to give our employees a ‘5’ [excellent] because this would suggest that they are over-qualified for their position and that they should be doing something else; however there was no discouragement from giving them a ‘1’ [poor]. Well thanks for telling management not to give employees an excellent rating for their performance. If you are a person who wishes to go the extra mile and to do good for your employer it may not be appreciated here.

old school managers, over time is a NORM, severely understaffed, the responsibility of the UA/Trainee is very high and no rewarded with proper compensation. Use and abuse mentality
