      Good first job, but don't stay too long

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good place to start your career and learn GMP. The first three months of training is very comprehensive, but training after that is very basic. You get exposed to multiple techniques.

      Cons

      Low wages. Career progression is very limited. Very high turnover. Workload can be very high at times. Majority of management are either toxic or unqualified. Senior management was brought in to address concerns, but nothing was done

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good place to get a year of experience under your belt to negotiate for a better position elsewhere. Quickly learn lots of techniques and industry knowledge

      Cons

      Expected to do the work of 2+ people and go beyond your pay grade. Lots of long hours and little to no work-life balance. Management expects you to be responsible for everything that goes wrong while giving you no tools to succeed or independence. If you're good at what you do they just give you more work no reward. Little room to climb the ladder/get promoted and pay is below market range. Little is done to address discriminatory and sexist actions from coworkers. They hire people straight out of undergrad and retain very few beyond a year or two so overall knowledge level is very low for the work you have to do.
