Pros

if you are orthodox jewish you will fit in. also, some of the divisions are very innovative. the scheduling is truly flexible, in a way i've never seen before. there are many bright hard-working people there. the company encourages healthy habit in employees, furnishing a gym. commuting to newark is easy on public transportation.

Cons

preference shown for the orthodox people. also, lately there is not much financial stability. the company has a recent record of undertaking ventures in many different industries about which they don't know much. they've been taken advantage of. management overestimates its ability jump into an area unprepared.

Pros

I liked all my coworkers at IDT. Nice view of the NYC skyline from the stairwell. The Reagan quote plastered high on the wall in the foyer: "America is too big for small dreams"

Cons

Whole departments seemed to get moved every couple of months The fourth floor deli does not settle well in the belly - yet I kept going back. Go figure.

Pros

Entrepreneurial environment where new businesses are constantly popping up. If you can latch onto the right project at the right time there is the opportunity advance and carve out a piece of the pie. Great work/life balance - most people have families and don't work much after normal business hours.

Cons

The company has no clear strategy for growth or profitability. Most business units are just trying to keep projects in play so they can stay employed. the cash drain has slowed but things are still pretty precarious. The company will have to start generating free cash flow soon or find a source of funding.
