Pros

Fun. Get to service computers and truly make a difference in others lives sometimes. When I had the right team, I was growing on a personal level and as a person. A place where your extensive consumer tech knowledge will be appreciated.

Cons

Terrible pay. Zero growth opportunity. Weaponized personal growth. Zero incentive to do better both as a person and in any first line role. Constant restructuring and layoffs. Poor job security. Higher level positions were filled before they were listed internally. Inconsistent scheduling. Plenty of dry promotions.

Pros

•Really nice people and supportive culture •Ample challenges and opportunities to work cross-functionally (relatively easy to move laterally if you find a team you want to get experience in) •Lots of employee development (company-wide learning days, marketing-specific presentation training) •Hybrid working style (mostly remote, but are now requiring 5 days in-office per quarter - pretty reasonable)

Cons

•They cheap out on pay and benefits •Raises range between 2-4% •Workload on this team has been too much for years, and middle management has little leverage with which to actually increase headcount to support properly.
