Pros
I have been at Stern for three years and promoted twice. I work hard and love what I do. The people who I work with I see as mentors, who I can learn from and who help me grow professionally. I feel you make your job what you want it to be here, you are not micro-managed and you can always go to any manager for guidance or just to get their opinion about handling any situation. It is a collaborative environment and every viewpoint matters. People here have high integrity and it is great to work with so many creative, smart people. I am lucky to have a career and the ability to maintain a life outside or work too - there has never been an issue if I need to come in late or leave early or if I need to do something during the day. We have flex time which I value so I don’t have to use my PTO bank of time which can be saved for vacation with my family. The company is very generous and concerned about their employees, wanting everyone to succeed and grow professionally.If we can celebrate something we do from employee promotions, holidays, our annual, summer picnic, & personal milestones -weddings, baby showers – it is always nice to hang out with your colleagues on a social basis.
Cons
No negatives. This company is obviously doing something right if they are celebrating their 30th year in 2015.
