Answer 1 :
I am not familiar with the details of Newark, but from what I understand there are some pretty rough sections, so you'll want advice from the people you're working with. One thing I can tell you about is that there is definitely public transportation into NYC. There are a couple of different options, but there are trains from Newark right into the heart of Manhattan via Penn Station.
Answer 2 :
I worked and travelled through Newark for years. Newark is not a great place to be at night. They do have the greatest Portuguese restaurants in the entire USA, but if you are going to be there a month and you decide to stay in Newark, you'll be in your hotel room at night fall or earlier. Here is what I would do if I were you. Stay at the Gateway Hilton in Newark. I assume you'll be working somewhere near the Gateway Center, so its easy to get to and from work. You are walking distance and all enclosed to the train station to quickly jump a train (15 minutes or less) into New York City (take NJ Transit for mid-town, PATH for downtown). You can then jump a train back to Newark Penn Station from NY and not even have to go outside to get back to the Hotel. In Newark, you should try to get to some of the restaurants as well as there is a minor league baseball team (newark bears) if you like to take in a game. Highly suggest not wandering the streets of Newark. Its not the safest place to be if you aren't familiar with the area!
