Pluspunten
Early Friday's and paid Jewish holidays. The office has many windows and good lighting. This is one plus while working. View of 5th avenue. No need to punch a clock here.
Minpunten
Salary is very poor. Very little room for growth in terms of experience AND compensation. Raises, promotions, and bonuses are difficult to come by at NYAG. There is usually no travel at this company due to budget. Trend shopping is scarce, and only local. Management is ok, but their lack of design knowledge makes it difficult to work with and see eye to eye on many ideas. Sample and design tool budget here is strict. This is an old company that is used to doing business in an old school way. Very small company with few designers, so projects are VERY scattered and inconsistent. Accessory designers usually find themselves completing tasks outside their title as graphic designers, packaging designers, storage organizers, showroom assistants, etc. making it difficult to focus on your role here and truly grow in an area. Because tasks are so scattered, and coworkers are usually not on the same page, this makes it very difficult to maintain an accurate and concise artwork archive. Roles/titles must be negotiated at the start of work as there are no boundaries here.
