Pros

My role allows for great work life balance (what I personally value and prioritize). Also, opportunities to continue to learn and grow.

Cons

Not much opportunity for promotions and not much opportunities for crew members in different roles to share ideas to evolve and innovate in my specific department.

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”.
