Pros

Hours aren't terrible Good place for college graduates to start off in NYC as a launchpad for better companies.

Cons

- Apathy and fatigue dominate office culture - face time and arbitrary metrics determine reward/punishment. - Expect title inflation instead of a year end raise/bonus - All decisions stem from misinformed/aloof CEO - HR pretends to act as a neutral employee on Glassdoor to inflate the company's ratings. Actual opinions of the firm/CEO are much lower than ratings suggest.
