Pros

Great to work for if you're straight out of college and too afraid to give negative feedback.

Cons

Beware....you can put in years of good service and dedication, but when you get older and reach your salary ceiling, they look for ways to get rid of you. They want the employee loyalty, but loyalty to you is tenuous. They say they want feedback, but if it's negative, it is not well-received and you are targeted. They wait until your weakest moment. I was a dedicated employee for 12 years and when I was going through a divorce, they chose to not support me when I was in a rough patch and instead let me go. Total disrespect to me and the loyalty and dedication I'd had to the company for 12 years. Disgusting.

Pros

Awesome coworkers for young professionals. Paid licensing for a few months.

Cons

Micromanagement is out of control. Incompetent team leaders who are obsessed with power and metrics. Back to back calls, limited support, and nearly impossible effective communication between departments. Zero time to cultivate culture because you are taking calls every second of the day except for 30min/1hr lunch and two 15 minute breaks. You’re locked into your role for over a year (apprenticeship for around 60 days, then a year after promotion to associate) and your team leaders will not approve internal applications unless you are “eligible”.
