Pros

company is growing at a fast pace and there are plenty of opportunties to grow from within. lot of benefits and perks. you can dictate your bonus based on how hard you work and perform.

Cons

if this is your first job out of college and you're looking for something to 'get by', you may want to rethink how you fit here. this is a professional job that needs to be taken seriously. those that do well are hard working and committed people and are highly driven to succeed like most jobs. job will be challeging and demanding

Watch out for mass layoffs without warning

Pros

The coworkers are great. Facilities are nice and will be even nicer when they move to a new building next year.

Cons

If you choose to work for them, keep this in mind: I was there almost 3 years then laid off (along with dozens of others) without warning. A decision made by execs who often spouted how much their "employees matter" and that "we're all a family". Turns out, we didn't matter much.

Pros

Christmas party, bagels on Friday, free soda, fellow employees,

Cons

1. Temp agency was extremely misleading about conversion times; was quoted 3 months when in reality most folks saw 6-9 months if converted at all. Keep in mind, there are no benefits in the meantime. The vast majority either quit or are dropped before being converted. 2. Hours inconvenient. Have many folks forced to work Sat-Wed now, which was certainly not the case for the last 6 months. 3. Company behaves as a cult with regards to its sales model, which is extremely awkward and impersonal. Any dissent is exceedingly frowned upon, and the leader is out there... to say the least. many people I know personally pretend to support it enthusiastically for fear that they will be fired. 4. Management keeps minimal communication with employees (besides the routine and copious emails and handouts with new tasks to tack on to the actual sales part of the job). And no, quarterly town hall meetings don't count either. 5. Despite being remarkably distant, several employees I know (including myself) have been absolutely reamed by managers in the most condescending and viscous way for one month of slightly off-color numbers, despite previous success. Not all managers fall into this category, though. 6. Repeatedly (daily) forced to choose between my job and violating personal ethics by misleading customers.
