Pros

Provides entry level opportunity for young professionals from a multitude of backgrounds A lot of training / management oversight to get you off your feet If you're good and work hard, you can make 6 figures within 12-24 months Opportunity to move to new cities and grow your career internally Great company to train at and leave for a well-paying internal position Happy hours and, at times, a really fun culture

Cons

Toxic culture and managers (demeaning employees in front of the whole office) Work / life balance Being treated like a criminal for being 2 minutes late HR violations left and right that leave the company very vulnerable to lawsuits
