Pros

Amazing co-workers-always willing to teach you things but don't go out of their way to actually do the job. Great benefit package, along with a positive self image of themselves

Cons

Salary- the knowledge and facts you need to have for the salary is ridiculous. This position is not just for someone off the d Street- you need to know a lot and is crucial it's correct as well.
