It's a stepping stone — as long as you can land somewhere else.

Associate

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

It's a semi-livable wage. If you're lucky enough to avoid work, you'll likely be promoted.

Cons

Intelligence isn't required or promoted, instead incompetance and dissrepect is. Expect long hours of repetitive and outdated tasks with no support or appreciation from others. The lower management and employee culture has dissolved over the past 3 years.
