Pros

located near the subway which is around the corner and near bway if you want to be trampled by tourists

Cons

dominated by a clique of those who have settled in for life upper management is blind to the toxic immature and unprofessional atmosphere created by those grinding out mediocre product with their priority being self-absorbed entitled dysfunction don't be fooled by the "it's a great place to work" line - it's the equivalent of the fake "customer comments" of C rated restaurants on yelp

A really fantastic place to work

Pros

Excellent work atmosphere, very little drama and a lot of get-down-to-business type of people. Also, excellent company culture and lots of active clubs to get involved with. Work-life balance is strongly encouraged.

Cons

You might get paid more elsewhere as it is a non-profit but the trade of for working in such a fantastic environment is worth it. Generally people stay at the company for a long time so if you want to "move up the ladder quickly" this might not be the place for you.

A not-for-profit organization after all

Pros

Very laid-back atmosphere. It is the leader in its domain so revenue is not a problem. People are generally nice.

Cons

People tend to stay very long with the company. The opportunity for advancement is rare.
