Pros

Wide array of experienced employees with one thing in mind, customer satisfaction. Depending upon your position, a lot of freedom can be given to get the job done.

Cons

Lots of travel. Bonus program does not apply to this position when it probably should.

Pros

Great pay, for the most part there is a good working culture. It can be challenging as well which can be rewarding. There are so many parts to the business so there is always something new to learn

Cons

The stagnant management is huge issue. They don't value fresh ideas at all. There are some awful, awful managers who have been promoted just based on who they now, not performance or leadership abilities.

Great Experience, Difficult to Advance Career

Business Outlook

Pros

It was a challenging work and I was able to get great experience. I had a great team leader. It was mostly why I stayed for as long as I did.

Cons

I started at an entry level position with the expectation of moving into a senior role in 18-24 months. It took me three years to get a promotion and was still doing the same work as before. I did not see myself advancing further without having new work experience. I watched many people leave the company due to the plateau of job opportunities. After leaving the company, I realized how strict the work environment seemed. Many times I found myself taking work home. I also realized the salary had been lower than the average salary for that position.
