Pros

Pay is good, but only if you are a top performer and have a good manager. Unfortunately, the only way to be considered a top performer is to pick up the slack of underperforming peers and work long hours. If you do your job , even at a high level don’t expect fair compensation.

Cons

Culture, be prepared to be a prisoner to your laptop. Between meetings and extra responsibilities being delegated to you from above, you will struggle to find time to step away from your computer for a few minutes. Forget about a lunch break, unless you are cool with working extra hours or falling behind. No job security, everyday you will wonder who’s getting laid off next. It’s an absolutely awful place to work, no longer a promote from within culture. Loyalty no longer valued. High performers with decades of experience are being laid left and right. Newly hired associates are being laid off as well, no one is safe

Pros

You receive pretty good pay once you have a few years established which is the only thing that really keeps most people there even though they are miserable. There is also good benefits (401k, health/vision/dental insurance)

Cons

Extreme micromanaging. If you are a hard worker you get praised with... MORE WORK. You have to help everyone who is behind (which is not the problem) it is more that those who fall behind have absolutely no accountability or repercussions. They call themselves a family but really you are just another number working for the man. It becomes extremely draining and after 7 years you only get a pin and glass Geico thing. The numbers are unrealistic and they don't even care for their customers, it's just knock out things as fast as you can, taking advantage of anyone or anything in your way. Promotions are very political, you could be #1 in the department but they won't take you just because they might favor the other person.
