Pros

the breakfast, really that's all

Cons

anything else, from micromanagement to aything else they decide to implement in this department which is just a joke. Very low career opportunities beside sales, which is just account management. Compensation is really discretionary and you can do everything perfectly but then one small msitake and that mistake will be shown in front of you for the enitre year and will be use as an excuse to not increase your pay in some way. "Mike" gloryfication. Long hours, sometime you are OBLIGED to work on weekends/public holidays (imagine Xmas in the office? here you are) and if you are expecting mobility such as working from another office or from home etc, forget about it. High turnover

Pros

Good pay, amazing benefits, free food

Cons

No training, no documentation for the tools, ridiculous micromanagement by low-level managers who have no idea how to manage, don't ever be a whistle-blower on bad behavior, or you will be put on the road to disciplinary action, constant backstabbing by coworkers. Basically like working in a junior high school. Mostly 20 year olds who don't know that the culture is completely toxic. Ridiculous arbitrary metrics that have no validity for measurement of performance.
