Pros
Varick is the kind of place where your voice is heard, and your work will have a very real impact. You can learn a LOT about the industry and grow a variety of skills. Every manager I've had has urged me to think about a long term career goals, helped me to find ways to grow, and pushed me to work on projects outside of the standard scope of job requirements that a similar role at another company would never have the chance to be a part of. This means that the more engaged and driven you are, the more you get out of working here. The culture is amazing -- everyone is so smart and passionate, good work/life balance, fun out of office activities, management is very approachable and understanding, you can literally walk right up to the President and give him any kind of feedback.
Cons
May not be the best environment for people who only want to fill out a time sheet and get out of work. People who are driven, curious, determined are the ones who love working here and have quickly climbed the corporate ladder.
