Pros
Smart, dedicated and talented employees that are helpful and can learn from
Management - professional, open to feedback and assisting you if you need help completing work
Stable office hours - 9 to 6 typically, more if projects need to be completed
Location - midtown Manhattan with plenty of methods of transportation available
Cons
Compensation and bonus - despite multiple positive year end reviews: almost no increases in salary, very small bonuses (less than 10k), no offers of equity, no 401k matching. Below industry average for finance and technology companies
No culture - sitting at your desk for lunch, not much interaction with peers, a place without a sense of comradery
Promotions - flat structure with little room to grow professionally
