Pros

Easy entry-level hiring, two-three weeks paid vacation plus paid market holidays,

Cons

Low pay, claustrophobic work environment, employees treat each other as tools rather than humans, lack of recognition, team building activities were limited to unhealthy food/dessert potlucks, provokes a general feeling of emptiness, very draining even on easy days with light loads, mind and body numbing

Pros

They offer resources for learning.

Cons

In my previous roles I've never felt burnout but with this one is the first I was feeling crush. I don't think managers take time to structure the tasks on a 8hrs or 10hrs per day. There are a lot of unrealistic expectations, no work-life balance at all. Even if you made the sacrifice to stay late, you will not be done with the work for the day.
