Sincerely hope you aren’t considering Times Square. I would suggest looking at events that require tickets. Maybe open bar or a nice dinner with tasting menu. If you try to do it ad hoc NYC can be a mad house

So I’ve done NYE in nyc and it’s hit or miss. Honestly it’s wildly overpriced, security is nuts so it’s hard to get around. But it can be fun depending on what you have planned/who you’re going with.

Any spot in NYC is wayyyy too over crowded during NYE! Be it a bar or a club or even parties with an open bar/food. No matter the ticket price, alcohol will be of cheaper quality since it’s an open bar! I’ve been to parties/clubs during NYE and it’s a pain to even move your feet and get to the bar to get your drink.. did leave the spot even before the clock hit 12!
If you are okay with the above, give NYC a chance.. or if not, find a mate who has a house party going on in the city! I always feel they are much better!

I know a lot of people say to stay away...but if you've never done NYC at NYE before I would suggest to try it out once. Its kind of crazy because of the tourists but there's a reason so many tourists go there for new year.

Just stay out of Times Square and make dinner and club reservations ASAP. Lots of fun events all night long.

I asked for a raise in April 2022 after three years with my company. Positive feedback since day one.

I’ve been asked to provide examples how my role has changed since I started to justify the increase. Is this normal? Or is this just their way of denying my request?
