Pros

3 weeks' vacation from start

Cons

401k company match is a loss if you leave before 12/31 of that same year, only make annual deposit for you retirement. Always asked you to do more, more, more and gave minimum pay raise. No annual cost of living is given either. Made you feel guilty if not getting enough out, asked daily "getting any revenue out today"?
