Cons

- The 6 month Columbus program is a huge waste of time for everyone. I understand the necessity of it, but even 5 years later it's still very unorganized and has zero translation to the onsite role which you have been brought on for.

- Location and security/stability: If you have zero say in where you'll end up when returning from India. And if you end up in a small market or on a pilot project you'll likely be asked to move in your first year. If you end up in a major market (New York, Chicago, Seattle, Bentonville, Atlanta) you're set, but are required to move before receiving a promotion to manager.

- Just the overall structure and values of the company. It's a very young company and thus it's filled with immaturity and inexperience throughout, which drags on you after a while. I could discuss this point further, but I'm sure it's expressed heavily in this thread.
