Pros

Great stepping stone! Learn what you can, take advantage and/or initiate any possible opportunities to own a special project for recognition and to build your resume, then run like hell!

Cons

Lots of bullying from upper management in a toxic and outright unprofessional atmosphere wear swearing, breaking pencils, pounding on desks and slamming doors is the new norm. Everyone is under massive amounts of constant stress to get an impossible amount of work done. Deadlines almost always compete and no mater what you choose to tackle first, you chose wrong. Supervisors/Directors can almost never agree on any one thing which results in religiously contradicting directions from the multiple supervisors you have and leaves the innocent "work horse" to decide which suit to follow and which to upset. No one is approachable and the nicest of people will gladly stab you in the back the moment you turn around to avoid admitting a mistake. Everything is a fire to put out - management does not know or care how to lead others, they are only concerned on how quickly they can unload their deadlines and messy confusion onto their many "nameless" associates. Not a healthy environment for anyone who values work/life balance.
