I have been a member of the Cutting Edge Elite team for the past three years. It's truly a fun place to work. Every gig is a new adventure, as we work with a variety of clients, and delivering stellar levels of service in different types of events throughout the Greater NYC area. It's a fantastic company for people who are self-starters and have a passion for hospitality and events. The fact that there is great team collaboration among my colleagues makes all the difference, as it's very important to have a willing and cooperative crew. Furthermore, my fellow co-workers are fun, entertaining, and

I’ve worked with CEE for 4 years now, and overall I’ve had a good experience with the company. They value dedicated, hard workers, so if that’s you, it’s easy to fit in and do well in this company and type of work. I can count on one hand the times the work I’ve done on a CEE-booked job has been legitimately challenging; the work we do 95% of the time is very simple, straight forward work. Combine that with the extreme flexibility of schedule and you have the ideal job for someone who is in NYC to pursue other things.
Cutting Edge does a good job at putting people into lead positions

This company is the best company I've worked for by far! The professionalism, the camaraderie, the overall business ethics of this company I stand by it all!! It feels like a family, because it truly is. Nathan & Lucas make sure the staff is taken care of first & foremost before jumping into any new business ventures. I highly recommend either working for them or even having a event that is taken care of by Cutting Edge Elite. I promise, neither will disappoint.

I've been an employee of CEE for over 5 years now. They are professional. Kind. Easy to work with and genuinely a great group of people. They have always treated me well and I would choose them over any other staffing agency in NYC

I’ve been active at CEE since I first moved to nyc. They’ve always been very accommodating of my work preferences and it’s always been nice to be able to pick up random events when I feel like it. The flexibility is something a really value, and every event that I’ve done has been a really unique experience.

The most unprofessional and incompetent company I’ve ever worked with. They over book for events and make the last employee to show up go home. They overcharge their clients for their overbooking. They have a ridiculous booking system where multiple people are involved and no one is on the same page. I’ve been told I was booked and then couldn’t get in contact with Lucas about my details nor could anyone else help. They DO NOT respect their employees and their time. I am never working with them again nor do I recommend anyone else.

In one word...Professional. We will certainly use CEE again. Their staff was so attentive to our needs. Everyone was welcomed with and knew exactly what to do. They were all very attractive which was a plus! I received several compliments on the staff. I would highly recommend CEE for any event. Thank you!

The team in amazing to work for and really cares about having great experience not only for the client, but the people who work for them. They are a great team to work with and for. They do a very good job of putting people in a position to succeed and well as specify skills to meet the needs of a given event.

Cancellations and low pay 💰 for so call "Elite jobs" Overbook then you get bumped having to go home 🏡 waste of time n energy . Have you hold on a job booking (Then cancel days later )
you can be booked on another job 😿 . One or two pp their were naturally sweet the rest just smile, just because u are working for them. Overall easy jobs minimum 5 hours 🕔minus ➖tax 😷

Lucas was such a pleasure to work with in planning my bday party. Our bartender was incredibly skillful in making drinks, but also went out of his way to help with anything we needed. We are so happy we used The Cutting Edge Elite and would highly recommend Lucas and his team for a smooth and stress free event. Thank you for making my bday spectacular!

The team at Cutting Edge Elite is professional from end to end. David and Lucas are excellent to work with and are very helpful when it comes to figuring out proper staff levels for an event - and they move toward a proposal quickly. The staff was incredible; all equally professional, well-dressed, pro-active in getting things setup or making recommendations for improvements, and super nice. I can't wait to work with this crew again soon. Thanks again!

Was in a lurch and needed a bartender for a next day Sunday event. It was a small request to ask on what I know was a busy day for Lucas but he was able to procure an excellent staff member who showed up dressed in a freshly pressed and clean uniform on time and ready to work. People always pay close attention to the big paying jobs but it's when they do an excellent job on a smaller one that you know they are true professionals.
