Pros
- They'll take fresh college grads even in this economy - Pays the bills (assuming you live the life of a hermit) and has decent benefits - Gives you a reason to get up in the morning
Cons
- Meritocricy means nothing, seniority takes precedence over competence, initiative, and preformance in considerations for bonuses and promotions - You WILL be managed by people who are clearly incompetent/stupid/insecure, and have been there for ages since they literally have no where else to go, and they know that - Easy to be stuck in the back office trap, especially when most people around you have no ambition to do anything else and actually think they are "playing the corporate game" - The work is basically glorified data entry, and future employers know that
