      Pros

      Possibilities to move laterally .

      Cons

      Retaliation is very current; but they have a cleaver way of blaming it on performance. Working schedules are typically long and the pay scale is no better than the competitors. Management is consistently pushing more projects on you without taking into account your needs. People will lie to get ahead. Very toxic environment.

      Assistant Director of Education and Training

      Just finished an application to a university that required me to enter all my work experience twice. First under employer history then AGAIN under work history. I am hoping no one else is that persistent or stubborn and I will be the only applicant! Oh, and you had to attach your resume too.
