Pros

For those working in Boston (The down town crossing location) Work is easy and you have plenty of time free to explore Boston during the work day. The job can be done in a few hours each day, giving you time to check out the ladies tanning in Boston common and public garden or go shopping. Despite construction, there is still a Macys, borders, H & M, CD store, and discount shops. It is also easy to get to via the T or commuter rail, no matter where you live.

Cons

The pay is horrible and you are very limited with what you can do

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.

Pros

The company has a great severence package. Unfortunately thats a pro because they are laying off workers every 3 months until most of operations are offshore. Decent 401k match and vacation.

Cons

Layoffs, pay is low. Return to office mandate.
