Pros

Massively undervalued - I didn't realise my worth till I saw the same role I've been doing for a decade for twice the annual salary. That said I was happily at the company for 23 years, lots of opportunity to do new things

Cons

Sadly, my last leader was sexually inappropriate. I followed every step the company values tell us to and I was so disappointed in the gaslighting treatment I received, even though I had proof. After so many happy years it was deeply upsetting to see the values I bought in to were selective for leaders.

Pros

- Complimentary lunch and starbucks everyday - On-site clinic for basic check ups - Hybrid

Cons

you will be taking phone calls every minute of the day. There will come a time where you feel like at the bottom of the world. You will ask yourself "is my role in life to help people reset their password online and assist them in logging in?" You cannot use the bathroom whenever you want, they have time coding that if you "abuse" them you will be flagged and subject to discipline. You have to give world class service but at the same time rush them off the phone or else you are not getting paid a good bonus. You will quickly find yourself gasping for air and time to relax when you take 50+ calls a day , you will feel drained. When is finally time to move up there is a high chance you will be paid less than you're current role as there are no bonuses in higher roles.
