Pros

It is hard to think of a pro when your company was bought and you know your end date is imminent. I had a mentor who took me under their wing and I was able to expand and grow within the company that way.

Cons

With the merger, we are now expected to work longer hours, take on more responsibilities, all with no incentives. Promotions are being denied. My growth within the company had nothing to do with my management, they were disengaged and helpless, but with my luck in gaining a mentor right away.

Pros

Coworkers are great, lower management is usually great, upper management is similar to most (some good, some bad) Salary is a little above average. 401K matches up to 6% and there is a bonus program based on personal merit. Unique to the MDP we move 1 per year for 3 years then get a steady full-time job. During the 3 year program BD pays $5000 per year (net) + pays for all moving expenses to rotate to new site. The opportunity to be in this program is amazing, allowing me to see 3+ BD sites in 3 years

Cons

While most other benefits are great. BD's Health Benefits through Aetna are atrocious. For a PPO plan as a mid-20's year old single male I pay over $150/mo and have a max OOP of like $4k/year and there are hardly and co-pays for anything. My fiance works at a small bank locally and makes a fraction of what I do and her benefits are twice what BD's are for an Engineer.
