DO NOT WORK HERE. - Administrative Assistant MS Shift Employee Review

The office is located in the World Trade Center, offering incredible views. The workplace provides coffee and tea, as well as bagels on Mondays and pizza on Fridays. The vending machines are consistently stocked with a good variety of snacks. The location is very convenient, with excellent access to multiple train lines, making the commute easier. Additionally, coworkers and partners contribute to a positive work environment, they are supportive and willing to help. There is always work to do, which keeps the job active and engaging.

The position is fully in-office Monday through Friday, with no option for remote work. Depending on the department, I think some level of flexibility or hybrid work could be beneficial.

Lots of opportunities for growth. In my short time at the company, I was able to evolve into several distinct roles, each with their own unique strengths and opportunities to learn and grow. Management is constantly reviewing our policies and incentives to improve performance and work-life balance. Examples include 4/10 work weeks, opportunities to work from home, and employee of the month bonuses.

The drawbacks of a smaller organization means that the company and the teams within tend to face large challenges, crunch times and need to evolve quickly to remain competitive. This typically thins the herd, but those who step up and accept the challenge are often rewarded. Another downside of this agile environment is that policies regarding work-from home are strict and limited, and the company relies on employees working full time in office to ensure the company can maintain its high standards of quality.
