Pros

Provides opportunity to interact with people around the world and understand business in areas not just within local area. Allows individual growth but doesn't praise accomplishments enough.

Cons

"Sink or swim" training. Compensation is below average for area and position. Underestimates the value of investing in knowledgeable staff. Workload increases significantly over time however raises are near non-existent with most going 5 years or more without raise or cost of living increase.

Pros

There is nothing good about this company.

Cons

Way behind the times, every thing is still paper and pencil. Most employees are over 55 and have been there for ever. Nothing is done electronic all is paper. Still haven't met a happy employee.

Pros

Challenges are great and I accomplished so much. Great place to learn something before you get a real job.

Cons

We would sell services that didn't exist then fulfil them on the fly with untrained staff, limited resources and tools. Customers had a bad experience and we were blamed and sacrificed.
