Pros

- Takes a chance on young up and coming professionals just out of university - weekly training sessions and one-on-ones to address and develop individuals - Tons of resources available to be successful in your role - High volume of work allows you to develop your time management skills - Great co-workers, everyone gets along well

Cons

- Low base salary in comparison to the market, and low vacation time - Some managers are not as responsive as others, and can come across as arrogant and unhelpful -Repetitive work everyday - keep track of how many calls you make throughout the day makes it feel micro-managed - Not the best work life balance - told if you don't work overtime (which you don't get paid for) you won't be able to make a lot of money and sometimes get made to feel guilty when you don't due to other obligations outside of work.

Pros

Great communication and support from the Vaco team. They genuinely care about your success and career growth, not just placing you in a role. Always professional, responsive, and easy to work with.

Cons

Opportunities depend on client demand, which is typical in consulting.
