Pros

-Travel (if you don't mind dropping everything at a moments notice). You can get tons of hotel points and frequent flier miles (if you don't mind fronting the cost for them). -Coworkers have a common sense of being screwed so they find comfort in shared misery.

Cons

-Impossible to get timely paid for work without jumping through hoops. -They lure you in with descent pay, then WHAM, force a salary significantly lower than industry standard. Anyone accepting a full time position takes a significant financial hit (I would have lost over 60% of my income). -Management protects and promotes poor performers. You end up cleaning up their mess most of the time. -Administrative staff oblivious and unhelpful. -Most people are completely unqualified for their roles. -Non-compete clause basically prohibits working in the industry for a year (within 50 miles of any office). -Top-heavy organization. -Frequent droughts of work.

Pros

Decent work life balance. Got a strong back bone while working for this company. Other than that I am not able to think of any pros.

Cons

Management never seems to care that employees are being bullied. They do not take things like bullying / slandering seriously. Micro managing, and turn over like no other. Unless you like being pushed around and belittled, I would not recommend this company.

Pros

- They are good at pretending to help you.

Cons

- They see their employees as pawns to take advantage of, exploit and lie to. Do not believe a word they say. I can't tell you how many times I have had friends who were lied to repeatedly by them. - They lack accountability - They are fraudulent. They are lucky to exist as an organization. It won't be long until someone pursues litigation against them for corruption. Be very, very careful working with them. - They are snakes in the grass. Just always be aware that what they are saying is rarely the truth but rather what they know you want to hear.
