Pros

Working at a museum provides reciprocal opportunities to visit New York museums for free. Few scheduled hours, however this gives flexibility should you only require working part time. More available hours and pay during seasonal events.

Cons

Poor pay, unless a titled executive position. Working at Moma just across the street pays significantly better. Additionally expect employees to work events but do not pay at event rates, so temp waitstaff make more than even employees. Treatment is abysmal of day to day staff, seen as second class unless required assistance is needed then are they acknowledged as even people. Executive management is not receptive to any form of improvement, and high turnover rate speaks for itself.

Pros

Hosts interesting events with access to favorite actors and actresses. Media buffs hidden little secret.

Cons

Has one of the lowest entry pays for museum services. High turn over rate. Little communication between departments. Higher management comes across as above the clouds and mostly uses center as a stepping stone for title hoping with little to show for it.CEO has own agenda and focus and does not actually make decisions that benefit the history of the center. Media library is limited despite being known for. No opportunity for advancement.
