Pros

- You will gain a lot of experience - Hardworking colleagues and team leaders - Learn to create decent designs quickly - Learn to package and ship a full design from concept to completion - Decent salary but not amazing - The fault is with the business but everyone is nice on a personal level and will treat you nicely, but when it comes to work they will care about the work more than your health or how many hours you've been there.

Cons

- Slave labour (work from 9 to 9?) (Whether thats from 9 am to 9pm or to 9 am the next day is up to your luck). - No work/life balance, only work/work balance - A design architect died from overworking at this place before, so keep that in mind (RIP 3am Adel). - Leaving before finishing the work is frowned upon, there is no 'tomorrow' concept here, if there's a submission, you're staying until it's finished even if it takes you two full days of non-stop working. - Boys and girls are totally separated by different sections, not by their job title, so you have to go to the boys/girls section to ask stuff just to work normally. (it's a religious-base belief here). - After a year you will notice repetitions in the designs and everything you do, you'll notice that youll start repeating the same stuff over and over again with no creativity, at that point you should leave. - Project managers are there to manage nothing. They appear to take submissions that are already impossibly tightly deadlined and then they disappear.
