Pros

In no small part to the blood, sweat, and tears shed here everyday by hard working and underpaid people, the Garden is gorgeous. Over the holidays, you may be graced with a $9 gift card to the Garden's overpriced cafe, so that's something to look forward to. Also, clocking out is a deep, cathartic experience that you'll appreciate more everyday you come to work. Ample parking.

Cons

With no exaggeration, the CEO is one of the coldest, most socially awkward human beings you'll ever get the opportunity to be indirectly micro-managed by. Walls have ears. Abject poverty. Feudal serfdom. Well oiled gossip machine keeps things running.
