Metropolitan Transportation Authority Employee Reviews about "great benefits"

Pros

Great benefits and time off

Cons

Horrible management and leadership. Everything is difficult to get done

Pros

Great health benefits and pension plan

Cons

Supervisors and managers expect you to work overtime at any time and when you do you are expected to stay 8 hours if the job only takes 3 hours. Unlike others, I do not defraud the taxpayer. The people you work with will not work with you if you are hardworking and professional the problem within this organization. The people managing you have no concept of what is proper maintenance. An incredible amount of nepotism which is rather unfortunate. Hiring examinations are flawed from a technical standpoint.

Pros

good hours and pay ..benefits was great ..

Cons

the customer where terrible hate that ..

Pros

The benefits are great and the experience of being a bus operator is interesting

Cons

The customers and the stress of the job. You really have to go to work with a positive mindset

Pros

great benefits for interns and full-time employees

Cons

poor career advancement and office politics

Pros

Quality of Life and great benefits

Cons

Limited upward mobility and lack of autonomy

Pros

Job security. Plenty of opportunities for advancement and I believe it to be one of the most diverse workforces in the world. I spent almost 37 years there and was able to retire with a great pension and lifetime medical benefits. I had a great career; the job is what you make of it and I have no regrets.

Cons

The job is 24 hours a day / 7 days a week. You will spend a lot of time away from family and friends; the family needs to be understanding. Once you get into supervision / management, you see a lot of what drives the MTA is politically driven and media / publicity sensitive.

Pros

Great benefits and work/home life

Cons

Great benefits and work/home life, but not the best if you are young and are looking to grow and challenge yourself. The strict public laws and rules in place for government workers make it hard to find a reason to stay with such low pay compared to the rest of the market especially now that pensions are gone...

Pros

The benefits are great and it’s a stable job

Cons

There’s lack of growth. They do things backwards here. No pay raises.

Pros

They just started giving 3 days of work from home opportunity.

Cons

Too much bureaucracy. It took me 1 full month to get a computer connected to the network and ready to work. The whole please is like a ghost town people hardly talk to each other. Management structure out of wack because most heigh end IT personal will not like to work there. It will be a great place to retire because it is kind of slow over there and the retirement benefits are good. Iron g
