Pros
There is a Starbucks one block away.
Cons
Latin Markets likes to show that they are the most important conference company in the U.S when in fact they are only a group of young guys that think they are The Wolf of Wall Street and annoy people in the financial market every day. The company doesn't have a marketing strategy and they don’t care about their image. I received many times emails and calls from people complaining about LM’s calls, their clients are clearly unhappy. They will tell you to do stupid things such email blasts to 10,000 executives and you cannot say anything about their strategy, they never consider your opinion. Bullying and some Xenophobia are words that explain the relationship between manager – staff, they wait for you turn around and make jokes behind you just like kids in the High School, to be honest, when I was in High School it didn't happen. I’m foreign and I felt they just had no respect about people from my country and Latin America in general, they were always using stereotypes of us to explain why we were good or bad in certain things. When I was working there the office opened from 8AM-6PM, but they will ask you to work more or you get fired, they will say this indirectly in a meeting, then if you do and ask for overtime payment they will say you worked more because you wanted. To conclude I never thought workers would be treated just like the textile workers in the 19th Century in 2014 Midtown New York. The company is clearly starting to sink, and to be honest work in a Fast-Food restaurant can make you happier than wear a tie and be a “modern slave”. If you want to build a career or you are already an experienced professional you will be exposed to the most important people in the market, they can hate you and it may close doors in the future, be careful.
