Pros

You get a lot of experience working here and meet a lot of supportive people and the management is nice and will treat you with respect.

Cons

It's a dead end job. The company preaches to you how important your job is but yet they pay you peanuts. It's hard to take your job seriously.

Avoid at all costs unless you enjoy being miserable and are just riding it out for the paycheck

Pros

Large company with alot of opportunities, especially for those who are either relocatable or looking for relocation.

Cons

I honestly don't even know where to begin. Basically, other than the fact that it's a huge company with alot of opportunities throughout the nation and the world, it's pretty much a huge joke. I'd steer clear. Profit rules and everything else is, well......who cares.
