Pros

Benefits are great, work life balance is decent.

Cons

Pay is not competitive. No matter the length of time working there you will make the same as a new hire with no experience. Management plays favorites. Management and HR will do nothing about harassment.

Pros

Willing to hire straight out of college. Training is thorough and you'll gain a large range of experience on analytical techniques. Flexible work schedules so long as work gets completed in a timely manner.

Cons

Promotions taper off quickly. Raises are small and don't carryover once promoted (you go to the base pay of the next rank).
