        Pros

        * Significantly improved both my technical and leadership skill sets * Nearly all of the people I worked with were friendly and competent * Pay was fantastic * I worked 40 hours per week most weeks and didn't get pressure to work longer hours

        Cons

        * The expectations of my job were very fuzzy for a long time, making the review cycle very stressful. * There was sometimes focus from my managers on gaming the review system rather than doing the best work I could do

      If employers are shopping cheap, should we just apply for roles that we're less qualified for?

      I had an interview late August, sent a thank you the same day, followed up when they said they would get back to me, and then again a week later and I got no response. I gave up and they just sent me an email saying the position was on hold and they hoped to have an update at the end of the week. I'd still like to see what they might offer me so what could I say in response?
