Pros
Fun work parties, friends (commiserating)
Cons
If upper management actually took the time to look at their managers they would realize how much of an HR NIghtmare they really are. Some of these managers have been around for ages so they can do whatever they want. And force new staff to do whatever they want no matter how unethical. They see contractors as walking money signs. I hate screwing with people's lives. I just had to fire someone because they took a day off when their sibling died. Told my manager I didn't feel right about it and was told "you'll get over it". I'm thick skinned but I never felt so crappy about a job. The frat house environment is toxic. Sexist pigs who brag about their illegal activities. Look how many females are promoted to managers. Very few. How many have families? None. I've seen recruiters get pushed to unreasonable expectations and terminated when they find out they are expecting. The work hours are unreasonable. 7:30-5 mandatory but If you don't stay late you aren't a "grinder" so you won't make it. The salary is also deceiving! They say 50k within 3 months. Very few recruiters hit it that quickly. If you have a deadbeat manager even harder. Tired of being belittled. Actively looking to leave this company but not having any time to look or interview due to this horrendous schedule.
