Pros

The people I worked with and around were all wonderful and kind. The workplace is unionized, which is fantastic.

Cons

The HR department is a mess and terribly disorganized (although the actual people are very sweet). The institution definitely takes advantage of temp workers. They use them in lieu of permanent workers to do needed labor and not just project based work. They say there's not enough money in the budget... mmhmm. The very majority of the lower and mid-level workers are women. Vast majority of those at the top (the high earners) and men. Don't expect to make more than $70k a year (for NYC that's a pittance).
