Pros

Lots of training opportunities. Good benefits and fair compensation. Great bonus system. Some opportunities for advancement, but you have to kiss up a lot to get ahead.

Cons

There is a lot of micro-management every day. Too much looking over your shoulder and too much pressure to sell products customers do not need.
