Pros

I met some nice people. The pay was pretty good.

Cons

In QA the people didn't really understand what/why they were doing something. I never saw a test plan or had testing meetings with the developers. Often after finding an issue a developer would ask QA how to reproduce, but QA had no idea because all of the testing was automated. No one knew how the tests worked. In the 2 years I worked there I didn't really learn anything about being a QA. I maybe worked 2 hours in an 8 hour day. That is how it is for most people. Lots of slacking off. I am so glad I was fired early. Now I am at a real software company and am learning real skills.
