Pros

Pay is good. However, many salaried positions require some overtime that effectively reduces your hourly rate. Be wary of this.

Cons

Work life balance can be poor. Other companies have better school perks and perks in general. Some upper level management thinks they can layoff mass amounts of people and replace them with AI lol.
