Pros

Being the first to see new technology roll out. It's also nice to get a discount. We have a easy to use app that gives us immediate access to need to know specks.

Cons

It requires discipline to not spend that paycheck. There is always something that will catch your eye. Also, everyone that knows you will assume that you are their personal geek squad agent.

Pros

-It's a job that is available in most locations.

Cons

-The company, on a corporate level, doesn't seem to grasp the value of the talent they have. - Close ties with Citibank subvert the importance of product knowledge, customer service, and revenue for credit card sales. - Daily Performance check-ins are overbearing and myopic. - Tends to burnout motivated employees with false carrots and hollow promises. - Pay's terrible, and rides the line of predatory at times.
