Pros

Amenities and discounts are nice.

Cons

The fact that everybody start off as a temporary employee with no benefits is ridiculous. You have to basically do everything to get on the right side of and boot lick to upper management (most of which are very aloof) in order to go through the perming process which involves going to an out of pocket seminar called Landmark forum and various rigorous interviews which can take months in order to then have a final interview with the owners who then have the final say. This is the process to not only have basic employee benefits but also whenever you are being promoted. It can take up to or even more than a year. The landmark forum never goes away and you need to attend regularly as long as you work there and implement the lingo and teachings learned in your daily work life which seems like a cult.
