Pros

Working with young adults. Great DBO. This app also made have "20 characters" for the "pros" section, I don't have any other pros so I'm writing the rest of this to meet that 20 character min.

Cons

I can almost promise you, you will likely hate your life, watch your relationships with the ones you care about deteriorate, and watch the rest of your life crumble. Very smart business strategy though... they target college kids coming out of school who are eager to make a difference, use them to be grow their network, and once those who understand/figure out the scheme they are running they leave....those are the smart ones.. you will spend more time in meetings and meetings about meetings. Most of your day will be taken up with pointless and time consuming things. Then once the day is over they won't have any sympathy for you and be on you and ask "if this is the right place for you". The account managers will say you're partners but they will belittle you and make you feel as though as you're the problem. But on the contrary a lot of the account managers are going to hope you can save their job. Their supposed to bring in new business yet a lot struggle to do so, then like I said....they make you feel as though that is your fault. Overall very eye opening experience. DO NOT WORK HERE UNLESS YOU ARE ON THE VERGE OF BEING HOMELESS OR HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO OTHER OPTION. Way over worked. They will lie to you about pay. They don't tell you up front how long it will take to reach your salary. They will completely blindside you.... most account managers were pathetic. Only had 1 I actually liked. Horrible work hours. They love to entertain, lots of drinking....alcohol fueled, but that's the only way to stay sane in this company... my physical and mental health became very poor.

Pros

good contract customer was expectin at least a year plus of working with a a company called microsoft. made good friends at the last job i did with them.

Cons

contract barely lasted 5 months for me, less for others. I felt used as a tax write off, They laid us off without notice. We had suspected it would happen again after the first time 300 people got let go. When it happened the first time we were surprised now the second time I got to be angry. They lack communication and knowing how to handle an overpopulated work place and proper protocol about laying people off. for some people who relocated and they have still not recieved pay and since their contract is over they may not even recieve it.
