Cons
Work Life Balance: You will spend 11-12 + hours at your branch per day. Some days better than others but nevertheless your aren’t compensated enough. You’ll understand why teachers should get paid more once you leave. Upper Management: the further you go up, you’ll notice how deeply attached/engaged Upper Management is. It’s almost as if we you’re in Jamestown and everyone is drinking the look aid, E V E R Y O N E. Education: They do not support you going back to school to earn your masters degree. They do not support you going to school for your masters degree. Either they want you to work for them forever or they don’t want you spend your time tying to better yourself. Either they want you to spend your every waking moment thinking about work or they don’t care that you’re wanting better yourself.
