Pros
The Buyer position at Clark Associates has plenty to offer with regards to learning the procurement/purchasing industry. This is a young work environment that is not afraid to give out responsibility while training you to take on a new field or category. Be ready for a fast paced workplace that will benefit you if you are a hard worker and have some tough skin. Also, the hours are pretty flexible. As long as you put in your 40 hours weekly and are managing your projects well, then you should be good to go. Pays well for such a young group of employees.
Cons
Learning their computer/procurement system can be a challenge at first that will set back some new-hires. If you can master this and ask plenty of questions then the position will offer you many options. The training is good as your boss or fellow employees will walk you through certain processes, but it can also be sink or swim a lot of the time. Lastly, the leave time for new-hires is lacking slightly, but I believe this is being revamped.
