Pros

It's Carnegie Hall and all the cache that comes with that. Free concert tickets and early access to purchase tickets for show that will surely sell out. The office is like something from a movie and the people by and large are great. When people move on, they move on to bigger and better things and having the CH name on your resume has a lot to do with that.

Cons

Working there was possibly the most racist experience of my life (and I'm from the south). The Directors are not kept in check at all and there is no system in place to whistle blow what comes across as blatant favoritism, racism, and sexism. There is no real desire to promote from within except for those who say 'yes' the most regardless of their actual abilities. The education arm is one that openly dislikes its own employees and to no surprise, experiences the highest rates of turnover. There is a lot of talk about diversity and inclusion yet this is not even attempted internally amongst its own staff.

Pros

- Most people are committed to the organization and are nice and capable - The organization is fair and generous in benefits, time-off and respecting personal time - The office space is very nice

Cons

- Transactional management style- There is a complete lack of career focus even in important roles. Management was only focused on the task at hand, not mentorship or career development - The review process, an important career milestone, was treated as a formality only. Reviews were often overlooked or not done entirely - Consistent professional warmth and feel good moments were lacking -Lack of career progression and goal-setting made high achievers feel stagnant and not acknoledged
