Pros

Better than average salary and benefits

Cons

No 401k matching, mind you this is a division of Cantor Fitzgerald. Management is all over the place, some micromanage, some are non-existent. No consistency in how a raise is earned, mist upper management seems disconnected and uninterested in their staff.

Pros

The paycheck and benefits - that is not saying much.

Cons

Leadership has poor listening skills, is often moody/belligerent, puts in minimal effort, and indulges in gossip/pot-stirring. I was repeatedly told explicitly and implicitly that I had to kiss "you know what" to get far in the company. I am now brought to my other point, management is filled with unqualified people due to favoritisms or nepotism. Leadership also puts on airs. They often talked about how important they were which was off-putting and unprofessional. It often felt like baby-sitting. I spent more time organizing and random favors instead of doing real administrative work, and I have a Bachelor's with honors.

Pros

The only good thing that I can say about my role with NKF is that the base pay was average/fair. Bonus pay is just OK. There are some good people there.

Cons

Terrible leadership. The company stock is a joke and won't budge. Very poor benefits. No retirement contribution at all. Terrible health plan(s). Awful work/life balance. No positive company culture at all. The company is very disjointed after several acquisitions. You can't really get administrative support in an effective way. If you have to travel, be prepared for the company to borrow money from you with a promise to reimburse you IF you follow their complicated and antiquated reimbursement process. In other words, they won't give you corporate cards. The technology and consulting department(s) are in complete shambles with terrible leadership. This company has no appetite to be aggressive or progressive. If I was a customer, I wouldn't do business with them based on what I know about the internal practices and the type of people they have hired. At this point, I'm guessing they've lost as many clients in consulting engagements as they have kept. All due to very poor leadership, lack of vision, no integrity, and lack of discipline. It will be quite easy to pick off their clients one by one.
