    Pros

    Working with smart people / from a very diverse background

    Cons

    MDs/VP's continiously try to brainwash and gaslight you. Brainwashing in the form that its okay to work long hours and making you feel bad about not working 70+ hrs a week. FOR HALF TIME PAY. HALF TIME. Not time and a half
