Pros

Great medical benefits.Great job for a recent college grad. Granite is a great place to learn discipline.

Cons

Packed into a 3x3 cube like veal. No privacy. Corporate culture of being shamed into participating in charity events (I wont shave my head for anyone). Too many ridiculous rules. Too many hurdles to sell a decent sized account. Didnt like the comp plan. You have to really bust it out for a few years to make appreciable residual $. The key fundamental of this job is being A)a master of generating good leads and B) Being maniacal about organization. Unfortunately these 2 fundamentals are so crucial and they dont teach these in training. Also, i didnt like to be told when i can eat lunch, i didnt like the cliquey atmosphere where half my colleagues were friendly and nice and the other half wont even look at you. Manager sat close to me so he can oversee my every move. Im not a fan of micro management. God forbid you call in sick or need to go somewhere during the day.I was told that I needed to stay late a few times a week. No thanks I want a life, not to be shamed. I quit soon after being hired.

Pros

You'll learn skills that will help you land a better job. Free gym. Not far from the red line. An occasional bonus.

Cons

The company culture is toxic, unhealthy, and will bring you down. High turnover rate. Steer clear of this company at all costs.

Pros

You can meet some great people. I met some of my best friends here. Gym at work. Work with some big clients (depending on your position)

Cons

Every employee is overworked for little compensation. No one here is ever in a positive mood. No one likes their job. Very High turnover rate. Ridiculous dress code. Every employee has to wear a shirt and tie whether or not even leave your desk. There is just too many cons to name. Save yourself the time and stress , Look somewhere else.
