Pros

Being on a team that becomes like second family (you have to because you never get to see your family), pay for the area, guaranteed breaks with one hour lunches, and location.

Cons

Mandatory overtime, point attendance policy, team coaches are sometimes unwillingly to help, daily changes to business policies that you have to explain to customers, take downs of certain channels like AMC and have to explain to disgruntled customers, a training program that is too short, and set schedules where there is no room for changes when a major even happens in your life.

Pros

Decent pay Overtime is good if you're not salaried Good managers can make it bearable

Cons

Working holidays High deductibles on benefits Terrible communication Focus on appearance vs actual job output Support staff offered no bonuses or incentives Support staff also hired sparingly in comparison to the techs (the real "moneymakers")

Pros

Opportunity to move up fast if you hit certain metrics. 4 day work weeks. Pay is decent for these hard times.

Cons

Long work days. No sick time for 2 years. Always feel like you job is in jeopardy because of metrics you cannot control.
