Pros

- The people I work with are a fun group of people - Some of the projects are quite interesting. - The high turnover causes advancement opportunities - Decent amount of time off early on in career, although it caps at 4 weeks at 12 years (I think there should be a fifth week at 20).

Cons

- The company is extremely aggressive around dead lines. - Upper leadership is out of touch with the associates in the trenches. - Managers threaten to fire people who discuss pay. - There is one manager (not mine) who clearly plays favorites with his associates. - Health Insurance has a big "donut hole" where the company does not reimburse between $750 and $2250 dollars. - My initial offer was significantly below the industry average and what I eventually negotiated is still low compared to what Glass Door says I'm worth.

Pros

Excellent Training till you're on the road.

Cons

Basically, you are supposed to know it all immediately. Then when you ask a question instead of support you get tossed to the wayside. This is not for someone that cannot be away from family you will likely be out for 3 weeks. For me that was fine till I wasn't.
