Pros

Own cubicle, freedom to get up from work area as you please. Nobody constantly hounding you. You can eat at your desk. Plenty of overtime.

Cons

Expectations too high, doesn't properly train for the job. (Has a co-worker try to teach you their ways of how to get the job done. People blame others for their mistakes constantly) People I worked directly with were not friendly. Very cliquey work environment.

Pros

getting to know the wonderful people on your client base getting a free two-week trip to New York

Cons

management is cut-throat your workload is incomprehensible if your not on anti-anxiety meds now, you will be in about 6 months no overtime allowed, yet there is never enough time in your shift to do it all basically you're an accountant without the title and the pay
