Pros

If you suck up enough you'll get a raise.

Cons

The company spent untold hundreds of thousand of dollars to bring all the U.S. staff together today to preach some new gospel of "now we're all together." They are clueless. A bunch of zombie presenters reading from scripts describing department functions and responsibilities. There isn't one person in the whole company who can speak without reading from a script? Waste of time and money.

Pros

Contributing to an educational environment, work didn't require any prior experience.

Cons

Management consistently took in more kids than the employees had capacity for, which lead to a lot of crunch for what should have been a straightforward task. The amount of work we were required to do did not scale with the $8 an hour I was receiving.
