Pros

Great coworkers Great benefits Great office

Cons

Zero direction from middle or upper management other than “we need you to own this” IT support is a nightmare. Direction of onboarded staff and organization of departments is in shambles. Absolutely no training on internal systems other than a slideshow. The entire staff that I worked with consisted of employees that had been onboarded for less than a year. Two employees left the organization right as I got hired. Critically low staff, and way to much work for a incomplete team. Upper management does not align with middle management. The technology that the organization runs on is an absolute nightmare. Do not expect any quick fixes to any problems you have with technology.

Pros

The NY location is close to Grand Central Station

Cons

Slow Canadian culture that finds it challenging to meet US regulatory standards. Executives play favorites and gaslight employees, if you voice your opinion, they either silence you or try to manage you out with exaggerated "performance issues"
