Pros

Benefits are $1 and pay is good

Cons

If you want to work in a panic inducing environment and have management that always ensures you know your job is on the line then this is the place for you. Consistent turnover, extreme micromanagement, very negative office vibes and a ton of travel. The comments talking about needing therapy are no joke. They talk about how much money you can make, very few actually make it to that point.
