Pros

Convenient location, free gym on-site, can be a stepping stone

Cons

Do not listen to your recruiter! Pay is low. Workers are treated as worker bees, not individuals, this results in extremely high turnover and an attitude by management that everyone is only using the role as a stepping stone. My coworkers openly talked about how they wanted to leave the job. Also, there are slim amounts of autonomy, a ton of micromanagement, and a mind-blowing amount of rules. For instance, after the Redsox won the world series, everyone was allowed to dress casually in Redsox attire rather than in business professional attire to celebrate the win. Not within an hour of the work day, everyone received an email that if they were not in Redsox attire specifically (other Boston sports teams did not count) you would be sent home to change into formal attire, without pay. Craziness! I left and found a job that is better in every category. Believe me, you can do better than work here!

Pros

To be completely honest, I cannot think of any.

Cons

So... where do I start? I guess most importantly is that this company claims that you are going to make good money here. Please do not be fooled. You will work tirelessly and bend over backwards for a base salary. Commission structure is a joke (get paid 6+ months after you finalize a deal). Turnover is INSANELY HIGH; therefore, the culture throughout the office is extremely negative. You will not **I REPEAT -- WILL NOT** be respected by upper management unless you are apart of their clique (and you won't be). Micro-management at this company is the worst I have ever seen. The people you have to be around on a daily basis are extremely miserable... all the time. It is damaging to your value of life to work here. For the love of God, don't do it. I would also like to note that people constantly walk around the office high/drunk.
