Pros

They pay well You get good benefits They have good technology

Cons

They will exhaust every bit of you and bleed you dry and then blame you for being burnt out Quantity is more valuable than quality You are disposable, and they make certain you know that no matter how many years you have been there... you are easily replaced. Management cares more about their image than the people they serve or those who work for them
