Pros

Located near Times Square

Cons

Extremely predjudice against people of color. Especially males. If hired at all they don’t last long unless they work in the mailroom. MSA’s are constantly subject to being targeted by mgmt until they quit or fired. Buyers tend to be nasty to MSA who do their admin work. Nothing is ever done to protect the MSA. Anything told to HR with promised confidence is repeated to mgmt with consequences. One of the lowest paying companies for the same position in NYC. People are fired for almost nothing. People are encouraged to apply for higher positions and then insulted when told that they did not get it. Only to see the girlfriend of the best friend of one of the most loved managers get the job.

Pros

Pay is decent. Bonus structure is decent. Hybrid model. Summer Friday's through summer. Student of the business model. A lot of learning and grow your own opportunities. Care for your success in your role. Many opportunities to grow with the company, you just need to be out spoken and put yourself out there. Casual dress.

Cons

Busy work. Depending on the area you get assigned to work load and flexibility can vary. Favoritism. Can be a high stress environment. Certain areas do not believe in work life balance. Management love to micromanage and listen to themselves talk. Many meetings. Meetings that can be emails are your day in and day out. The actual office space is dated. In the heart of DTLA, very unsafe surroundings. Advised by management to not walk around outside of the building.
