Pros

Possible to move up quickly if those above like you and you do get hands-on experience very fast, albeit possibly not experience doing the job you were hired for.

Cons

Organization seems in disarray most of the time and firings/layoffs can be unexpected. Deadlines seem arbitrary, as does enforcement of who does or doesn't have to meet them. One of the most nervewracking places I have ever worked in my life, due to the constant feeling of instability.

Pros

They pay really well. That's it.

Cons

It's a bait and switch. You will be lured into taking the job by the pay, but then your job isn't what was advertised. There's no onboarding process. People will sit you down day 1 and expect results. The culture is awful. Think start-ups: high school behavior is rewarded. You're job isn't secure. They do lay-offs to make the numbers. When you finish a big project, be worried - that's when the layoffs happen. They take your expertise to set-up something and then send you off to pasture. When lay-offs occur, you lose health insurance THAT NIGHT. If you have a family, you an't afford to take this risk. You cannot get references. If you leave the company, HR can only verify your dates of employment. They will not say anything about the quality of your work. Expect to work late hours without compensation...or a thank you. Teamwork isn't appreciated - there is no gratitude in the office, just rudeness. The CEO is a sarcastic individual who doesn't take questions seriously. There's a box where you can submit anonymous questions - he laughs his way through any concerns.

Pros

They give you good salary, people are great to work with, overall nice environment.

Cons

Your job is not secure, they fire 20 people each year and later hire more. No direction in terms of growth. They don't try new things in fields of analytics, paid search or TV.
