Pros

- not too stuffy. - at times, it felt like I had freedom but that was mostly because those times were when I was working in a satellite office on programs no one cares about. - some programs were fun to work on.

Cons

- not a lot of opportunities to advance. - the HQ is in New Berlin, Wisconsin which doesn't make any sense to anyone. Good luck trying to explain that to a client. They have many offices in major cities around the world but some of them are literally two people working from home. - salary sucks because it's based on the cost of living in New Berlin, Wisconsin. - at times you are stuck on programs that were doomed from the start based on unrealistic promises from the folks selling in the idea.

Pros

It was a good seasonal opportunity working on the Amazon Program. Pay was decent until I got a promotion that only came with a $50 increase in weekly salary but a major increase in responsibility + poor leadership + HR telling me "you'll make money by saving your per diem".

Cons

Poor leadership. All Field Managers operate differently even though it's the same client (Amazon). The Account Supervisor also admitted that he "wasn't in the weeds" enough to understand my issue of 1) being understaffed on my team and 2) unrealistic expectations that I was supposed to be on-site 8pm-7am working AND by available during regular 9am-5pm business hours to answer questions, When I brought all these concerns to the Field Manager and Account Supervisor but were non-chalant and were unhelpful prompting me to resign within the 1st week. HR doesn't seem to care either because they don't do any type of exit interviews.
