Pros

You will feel a close relationship with the people you work with. You bonus as a branch Everyone works towards the same goal

Cons

You bonus as a branch. This can be a good or bad thing. If you are not selling accounts then it is good for you. If you are selling accounts, you will have to pull the weight of the branch. You have to sell and manage the accounts which are all great things....until you realize that you have to answer the phone and listen to why people don't want to go to work, fix their pay roll and do every other administrative task that you can think of. Heavy emphasis on new accounts which doesn't give you enough time to focus on growing existing accounts which could ultimately help grow branch GM$ and help you get to your bonus. Very numbers driven...which is fine...if you weren't the secretary to everyone.

Pros

Contracts your work to reliable clients and supports your efforts while under contract.

Cons

Automated job alerts can be too broad - based on one or two keywords in resume. At times job alerts are for positions that do not meet your qualifications or experience. But, this is not a dealbreaker. Keep on top of adjusting search parameters or type of work you seek.
