Pros
Work from home at times. You get health insurance but your total deductibles and copays are astronomical.
Cons
What was once a fun place to work has been muted by the World acquisition, owned by venture capital. Pay, raises and bonuses are below average. Now, because of the unmanageable workload, if you once considered yourself a hard worker, proud of your work ethic, consider it gone. Your extra hours mean nothing. People in your office will cry because of the stress and you will hear of offices where everyone has up and left - that work has to go somewhere. Your coworkers, if not your friends, will become resentful towards you for no reason other than workload stress. If you tell management, their reply is “the numbers work.” Your self-esteem erodes. If you once wrote business with your favorite companies, you are now limited and many of those relationships were probably built up over years. Consider them gone. You can go along in their quest to be number one, but how much do you value yourself?
