There are an unprecedented amount of vacancies, but the city is using this unfortunate opportunity to get rid of some position altogether to save money, so some jobs will never come back. To use Adam’s own words the city is “in trouble” financially. For the vacancies they want to fill it’s difficult for multiple reasons. The rigid old school policies, especially regarding hybrid work, the cost of living in NYC is atrocious and the pay of most city jobs remains ever more stagnant, often a manager job at McDonald’s will pay more than what many city positions pay. Furthermore, attempts to strip health benefits from NYC retirees and pin them against current city workers reveals the Ponzi scheme. The city works on a tier system, and benefits are stripped away from new city workers, It’s an absolute mess of red tape, inadequacy and bad circumstances exacerbated by COVID.
