Pros

It's a good place to start off to get your feet wet and get experience. You get to wear a lot of hats and see how a lot of other people do their work. People are willing to teach you if they have the time. The benefits are great.

Cons

They overwork you and you don't get paid for it. It's hard for you to find time to take off because you're worried about handing your work off to someone else who might not be able to do your job well. Ridiculous politics when it comes to promotion and hiring from outside instead of promoting people who have proven themselves.

Pros

Strong Leadership, Fair/Average compensation, Thrive Program (company strives to keep you employeed as Sponsor reallocations occur)

Cons

HR is very hands off. It is very difficult to speak to anyone. Not simple to call and ask a question. Everything has to go through a portal. This is challenging when there is time sensitive needs. They make it work but in my opinion, this is a 'con'.
