Pros

- great people, chance to make some good friends and build your network - very social - lots of fun parties and social activities to get involved in - supportive environment - easy to talk to management, get help - interesting opportunity to take a look at many different businesses - great place for a "STARTER CAREER" but not a place I would settled down in the long-run - good perks and benefits, salary allowed me to pay off all my student debt within a year - huge focus on the community - community leadership, volunteering, connecting with the local community - and it seems very genuine

Cons

- everyone is looking to get out - slave labour at time and the work sucks. absolutely no value added - very unpredictable - you can get lucky and work decent hours or just get staffed on the worst jobs ever and get completely screwed over - hard to maintain a personal life and make plans, especially during "busy season". unrealistic to expect that employees are just to give up their lives for a period of time every year.

Pros

Solid salary, decent flexibility, very good work life balance in the summer, unlimited PTO as long as you hit your utilization targets. Fantastic culture in my office. Encouraged to take time away.

Cons

Busy season expectations- but could be like that anywhere! Workaholic culture, etc. most training is outsourced to sucky online programs instead of mentorship or setting aside time for experienced team members to coach.
