Pros

Student loan forgiveness, very light workload and not a stressful environment

Cons

Slow to utilize AI and may feel like you're falling behind in the tech sphere. Also Northwell doctors are not very good and the insurance offered only allows you to see Northwell doctors (most people use a spouse's insurance rather than Northwell insurance). Very slow to promote or move people up, very common to have extremely talented engineers that have been working there for 6+ years and never receive a promotion due to "cuts"
