Pros

Relatively easy to get in, difficult to get kicked out, great opportunity to learn useful - if slightly stale and uninspiring - trade.

Cons

Tight deadlines, IT issues, average compensation. In general I can't say I have serious complaints - I guess it's similar elsewhere.

Pros

They offer resources for learning.

Cons

In my previous roles I've never felt burnout but with this one is the first I was feeling crush. I don't think managers take time to structure the tasks on a 8hrs or 10hrs per day. There are a lot of unrealistic expectations, no work-life balance at all. Even if you made the sacrifice to stay late, you will not be done with the work for the day.
