Pros

PC community can be very helpful for training, lots of nice colleagues at same level

Cons

Toxic environment, senior staff are bullies and are not reprimanded because of the revenue they bring to the company EAs and PCs are looked down on by all other members of staff Any shortcomings are treated with punishments and belittling, A simple spelling mistake is treated like the end of the world, whereas positives will not be credited and senior staff will take credit. One of the worst places I have ever worked - AVOID

Pros

The organization provides great benefits

Cons

Management incentivizes high revenue generators, which also includes leaders who sometimes treat people very poorly. Depending on the office you are in, you might get work, but if you are in a lower-volume office you will have to figure things out on your own. They claim the bonus structure is transparent, but it is far less of a meritocracy than advertised during the interview process. Unless you have a strong sponsor, you have to fend for yourself. Some people have experienced a significant amount of mistreatment.
