Pros

growth opportunities are available to you with education

Cons

Through the previous months, we were supposed to get raises, but instead we are getting schedule changes that are altering everyone's schedules, and they are removing pay differentials. As a SA, I believe we should be compensated more as we do large amounts of work.
