Pros

pay is good; they are transparent when telling you how important culture is. they clearly want people who will work themselves to death and are very good at weeding out the ones who won't quickly.

Cons

you won't make friends; you are glued to your screen every second; the emails you write are timed; you have to clock out to use the restroom so your time doesn't work against you. horrible, seriously. more than half of my cohort quit within 1 month. they randomly switch your job ie from sales to finance if they need more people.

It was tough to get use to guidelines with work (not everything being concrete) coming from my prior role.
