Pros

* Brand Name * Significant Market Share in NYC * Ok Benefits * Cutting edge initiatives * Telecommute option available

Cons

* Zero shot at promotion unless you are a favorite or fake * No raises / increase / bonus - staff essentially on salary from 3 years ago * Management takes lion share of budgeted salary while complaining of finances * Extremely toxic, highly political & unprofessional leadership structure based on favoritism * Departments are silos - no cross communication * Doctors tend to carry more power & weight then your own management * Extreme drive cost savings & penny pinching on multi-million dollar projects which impacts quality of care * Intense workload with minimal to no resources * Unrealistic timelines - insignificant requests are deemed critical * Too many unnecessary meetings and lots of useless administrative work * Sense that layoffs loom in future due to extreme cost savings drive * Redundant staff due to mergers and acquisitions * Leadership completely lacks competency, ability, professionalism and charisma to lead

Pros

Company benefit PTO 29 days Healthcare beneftis

Cons

The Sponsored Project Finance team suffers from a highly inefficient and micromanaged culture. Leadership is rarely involved in the actual production of work, yet heavily scrutinizes employee time and time-off requests. While the 29 days of PTO sounds great on paper, actually using it is incredibly difficult; management frequently delays approvals until the absolute last minute. Additionally, despite workflows being entirely digital, the manager insists on a highly inefficient process of printing out digital documents to hand-write comments, which employees must then manually input back into the computer.
