Pros

Friendly people, out of NYC, easy commute, doctor on premises

Cons

Upper management wants to believe that employees are highly engaged, but management has become disconnected and blind to the truth. Over the past few years, the company has grown significantly in size. Broadridge spends cash to acquire companies, but it is widely known (internally) that they are poor at integrating them. Shock typically sets in within a year as weakly executed integrations begin with unrelenting urgency to hit arbitrary dates on misdirected projects steered by power hungry mongers supported by blind upper management… and those projects will ultimately be scrapped and recycled by those mongers into ‘new’ ideas and projects to restart the cycle again. There should be cycling classes for folks to spin their wheels there, literally and figuratively. The truth is that many people have become disenchanted and just do what they need to keep their job. As the company has grown by acquisitions, upper managers are unable to keep up connections with associates, so they rely on insight from fat cats in the old boys club to convince themselves they know what’s going on. Just keep it hidden from the clients. If you’re a lucky associate, your manager is in the boys club or connected with one of the boys AND supports you, otherwise forget it. Many people have been there over a decade and remain punch drunk from drinking Kool-Aid from years ago. That drink has turned sour.

Pros

You can test tactics, fail, learn, and it's a great place to try new things.

Cons

The amount of admin work is insane. So much internal work that competes with marketing priorities.
