Pros
I love this company so much. I came in fresh out of college (no degree though. Switched majors too much and ran out of money). Anyway, I've been working here for 2.5 years and have gotten 2 major pay increases. It's a family owned business so you get to know everybody really fast and you get to feel close to your coworkers and management, too. And also, you grow so much. Now lookng back, I feel like I didn't know anything when I started. Now I feel like an adult, that can bring value and confidence and great ideas. I'm leaving soon and I'm so sad because it feels like I'm leaving my second family. The ONLY reason I'm leaving is because I'm going back to school to get that degree. I told the owner and I thought it would be hard but she offered to try to connect me with an internship in my field. I could not be more grateful and happy that I took this job and I highly recommend it.
Cons
The cons aren't even that bad but here we go: 1. We have four offices in the Chicago and you get a schedule a week in advance for which office you'll be on different days. When I didn't have a car, it sucked having to take a bus and two trains to get to work. 2. It's highly air conditioned, and I get cold fast. I really like blouses and button ups but I have to wear sweaters everyday otherwise I"ll freeze to death. There are heaters under each death though if it gets too bad. 3, It's extremely busy in the summertime. This is good and bad because the days go by super fast but it can also be stressful trying to do so much at one time and not forget anything.
