Pros

The name looks good on a resume. Good place to gain solid entry level skills. Tuition reimbursement package is solid.

Cons

Hard to progress past a certain point unless you are in the "elite" club (that is you have graduated from an Ivy League School). Unless you are in an entry level position, flex time is extremely hard to come by. Not exactly family friendly.

Pros

Awesome coworkers for young professionals. Paid licensing for a few months.

Cons

Micromanagement is out of control. Incompetent team leaders who are obsessed with power and metrics. Back to back calls, limited support, and nearly impossible effective communication between departments. Zero time to cultivate culture because you are taking calls every second of the day except for 30min/1hr lunch and two 15 minute breaks. You’re locked into your role for over a year (apprenticeship for around 60 days, then a year after promotion to associate) and your team leaders will not approve internal applications unless you are “eligible”.
