New York Life Employee Reviews for Director

"Perhaps the 2nd best job I had, one of my proudest achievements."

What do you like about working at New York Life?

"This particular office, I was one of the originals that built this specialize office of New York Life from the ground up. I loved the challange of creating various departments, including my own, and working with all the departments in the company. It gave me a stronger sense of business and how technology can support and enhance the actual business."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"One of the best things I like about this company is that if you do what you are hired to do and nothing else, you will get a decent raise, based on your performance but you will not get a promotion unless you do more and demostrate that you are capable of doing more. Thus, this company motivates employees to grow and develop."

What don't you like about working at New York Life?

"Office Politics existed (like perhaps all companies) but not as bad as other places. It did not affect me because I was one of the originals."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Cross-training. Many businesses have various departments and each department do not know about the other and how they are related and how they actually work together. When an employee does not have a sense of The Big Picture it can make an employee stale but when the employee understands this, it creates a sense of team and increases the productivity of the employee."
