Pros

Honestly the clients were the best. But management and leadership is shady and will not tell you what youre doing wrong until its too late.

Cons

Exactly a we hire your friends mentality. They dont care where you came from, they will look at every thing wrong with you if someone complains. But when someone brings a legitimate hostile work environment complaint to them..... its no good they just trust what had been said by other "management"
