Pros

Listed company always looks good on a CV

Cons

Lack of direction and drive - no leadership what so ever and working within the environment itself was stale and impersonal. I was there for just over a year and barely got any guidance or direction from management. It was probably the worst year of my life and the feeling of inadequacy and lack of professional development was depressing. It was funny, when I did finally resign, no one really cared and even my direct manager did not even take me to a farewell lunch or even organise a card... heartless and soulless organisation with poor pay.... after working there for over a year, they went through some huge 'salary review framework' which took months and months of time... at the end of it, I was offered CPI even though the organisation had performed incredibly well... all the general managers of the business got $100k plus bonuses....

Pros

Easy way to get a few years of experience before you find something better.

Cons

Low pay, frequent threats of layoffs, and you are either being horribly overworked due to an insane sample load or forced to have your hours cut due to lack of business.
