Pros

My colleagues were some of the most brilliant, funny people I've ever had the pleasure of working with.

Cons

8+ hours per day of observing human misery with no mental health resources whatsoever and a constant push to flood client feeds with junk for the sake of numbers. Only real path for advancement is into management, which doesn't rely on any regional or subject matter expertise whatsoever.
