Pros

- great coworkers - 4 week onboarding/ training period where you get paid to do nothing - big company name for your resume

Cons

There is a reason turnover rate is so high. - recruiters LIE to you about what you will be doing - training was terrible, you come out just as clueless as before - you're expected to do more than what you get paid for - reviews depend on whether or not your manager likes you - work is incredibly mind-numbing - flex PTO depends on your manager and holiday - work life balance does not exist during holiday - no incentive to stay
