Pros

Ability to work remote; potential for growth; learn from team members and access to multiple tech tools and software; flexible work schedule

Cons

They work you to death. The management doesn’t care for you as a person, only cares about the bottom line. Lots of long hours with little to no appreciation or acknowledgment

Decent but Phony

Pros

-Flexible to Work-life balance -Fair wages -New jobs created constantly; can apply to whatever you want at any time -"Diverse"

Cons

-Diverse in outward lifestyles/appearances only. Felt very "othered" because I didn't come from religious or middle class background like the majority of my staff mates. -Promote underqualified people simply because they are Yes-Men/Women; leaves more experienced folks to be overlooked. You will not be considered for promotion if you do not fit in to their ideal image. -NFL ads are phony baloney. They rarely accept learners if they feel they cannot "professionally develop them within a certain timeframe," and will often choose a Caucasian suburban person over an African American -The org used to be good, but has been corrupted due to the overzealous desire to exponential growth, and the personal agendas of the staff. -They're overhauling the company to become a training/staffing agency to "sell" graduates to companies who pay for the training (yikes--that means the customer will come before the learner) -HIGH number of Women of Color in high positions leaving for reasons "unknown." -So much more to say, but overall, just FAKE!

Expect some politics

Pros

The ability to work remotely

Cons

A lot of politics and needing to serve the wants of leadership versus what data and ideal best practices are to move things forward. A lot of ego.
