Pros

Provides a very good opportunity to express your capabilities if you are highly motivated person and with positive attitude to others and to your objectives.

Cons

Long hours, impossible to have normal family life while working at AM. Relatively new management is manipulative and fails to meet goals. I see that management not as best AM had with all basic values established years ago.
