Pros

The medical plan is pretty decent, so are the pto and holidays. Besides that, everything else is down the drain.

Cons

Putting it lightly, professionalism does not even exist. A lot of politics and back stabbing. Managers who are incompetent and hold work till the last minute. The word communication does not even exist. Managers talk in such an aggressive tone as if they are your mortal enemies. The management does not care about these things as long as the clients are still there. Promotion only exist if you threaten to leave
