Pros

Not many pros, maybe the building

Cons

A lot of cons. You have to work from the office and the pay is low

Pros

Pay is great. If you have the right boss, you have the potential to be on a great team. Huge company, learned in so many ways.

Cons

Can be an extremely toxic environment, especially if you do not have a boss who can help resolve. Managers change every 6 months on avg so taking action against the toxic co-worker(s) rarely happens. Really have to advocate for yourself to gain the respect you deserve.

Pros

Pay is pretty good to start out. Opportunity to advance if you don't care about work life balance.

Cons

4 year comp package is less appealing over time and pretty much stuck at that level unless promoted. Workload/scope grows continuously until you have no life outside of work.
