Pros

Steady work for the most part Opportunity to travel Flexible schedules Name recognition

Management should receive professional training Interesting to see that comments indicate management cronyism is similar across offices Loyalty to employee is not the bottom line Poor efforts on compensation - especially after professional/licensed status is achieved
