Pros

Benefits and Work Flexibility, but come at a price of dysfunctional management and stress

Cons

Salary is not competitive, depending on your management team and what dept you either are applying for or work in, chances are high that you'll be treated like garbage down the road and forced out or fired. Just not worth it.

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”.
