Pros

- Amsterdam once a year for free. Even your passport gets reimbursed. - We are very spoiled. We get free stuff all the time! - Diversity. I've never met someone from Russia before, or someone who speaks Japanese. -Looks good on a resume -Hard to get fired. If they are firing you, you'll know why because they brought it to your attention multiple times before they give up on you. - Realistic expectations - as someone with no kids, i find the job pays well. This would depend on your living situation though.

Cons

It's a job, there's always going to be something to complain about. Favoritism is strong in my office. A lot of managers hang out and party with employees. The office has a high school vibe to it at times. There's tons of drama. If you want to advance fast in the company it's best to befriend as many managers as possible. Booking would rather promote someone based on manager review than their actual numbers! Another con is that it's hard to get fired. It's a pro in some ways but bad at times because there are managers and employees that should be fired.
