Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits are good, the salary is not bad. Advancement is possible, but takes sometime. Possible to move between departments if you are not happy.

Cons

The amount of work is not distributed equally. It's not what you know about who you know. Sometimes managers are over overbearing.
