Pros
Allows 4some flexibility/balance 4personal/professional life. Lots of team building exercises-group games, nights "away from your family" outtings, trips 2local watering hole....almost feels like the good ol' boy network or your long lost frat bros. If you need to take a break then Active is it but be prepared to embelish on the resume when you reenter the workforce. Active can be a place of longevity if you make it to the 5 year mark however getting there could be trying. If you know how to work the system this is the company for you!
Cons
You or the customer will get lost in company's newly implemented process/procedures. Active suffers from "not my job" syndrome. Active is a company that gobbles up other companies and then discards one by one those assets it aquired and be prepared if you are one of those employees because it will happen to you. You will rarely receive a higher than a 3.0 and if you are not related to someone with the company you will never land one of those big fishes...those big deals are reserved for people who are in the know...bit of an incenstuous comapny.
