      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Every day, you get to talk with people all over the globe. The salary is competitive, bonus and incentives are paid consistently, and the time off policy is great, with accrual starting within your first month.

      Cons

      There seems to be a restructuring/reorganization activity every year or two, and based on feedback from others, its been a consistent theme for years.
