Metropolitan Opera Association2018-04-27"Favorite Place I've Ever Worked. Also not Perfect."
StarStarStarStarStarRecommendsPositive OutlookNo opinion of CEOI have been working at Metropolitan Opera Association part-time for more than 9 years
Pros
Largest live art producing organization in the world. Free opera tix. Great cafeteria where the stage hands and admins mingle with the orchestra and singers. Walking to work through Lincoln Center is a dream. Feeling part of something bigger.
Cons
The Met has been slower to learn the professionalism of other industries in term of interpersonal relationships between departments and employees. People can avoid confrontation and then be back biting. This can delay or prevent innovation. This situation is vastly improved though over the 8 years I've worked there.
Advice to Management
Continue to increase transparency and positivity in the workplace. Work for more of a team environment between departments.

Pros
The money is good if you're single and don't have to work about work/life balance.
Cons
In order to make good money you have to work an immense amount of overtime and you're family/personal life will cripple because of it.
