You get to know your co-workers and feel part of a team. GDS has one of the best training programs I've been in. The pay and benefits are above average. A fun environment with music playing.

Cons

None so far. I’m still new but wanted to leave a review because I've been reading them while going through this process and hope it helps someone else out.
