New York City Department of Education Benefits

The maternity leave is pathetic

Excellent benefits when one works for the city.

City benefits without it costing you anything in your salary however you will pay copays for everything. Delivering my son was about $300 for everything which was great. The union covered my 6 weeks of paid parental leave. The DOE makes us take from our days to have any time off through them for parental leave.

Join the union and you are covered for dental, vision, and mental health providers. Unfortunately you have to work for 5 years to get the pension, this just changed from 10 years. The parental leave is weak, but that's the USA for you!

Decent health benefits great long term options for pension and health care

Pro: good salary and overall benefits, supplemental benefits through union

Health insurance is fully covered. No need to worry about high deductibles or monthly contributions. Pension.

401k medical benefit discount education

Free healthcare which is wonderful.

Health insurance, lots of time off, maternity leave issues
