Pros
Working at Edelman DXI makes you quite employable. Comments I went on to receive from recruiters/hiring managers include: - "wow, you are very affordable." (upon learning my last drawn salary from DXI) - "your resume says you have under 2 years of experience, but it feels like you have 5." (If you calculate it by hours worked, I probably did in fact amass 5 years of working experience in two years.) - "I understand. I used to work at Edelman too." (Me and the hiring manager exchange a long, grim look.) Also, you will learn to recognise the stages of burnout, which is useful I guess.
Cons
Long hours and obscenely low pay. After my promotion, I calculated my wage divided by hours worked on average per month and realised that I could work as a cashier at McDonald's and draw a comparable hourly wage. In general, difficult to live a life with dignity at DXI, as you spend most of your waking hours contemplating why you're good at your job but also dirt poor.
