Pros

You work with awesome people. You cover a lot of territory and end up taking on a lot of responsibility. This works great for some people. Personally, I love it. The expectations are high, so there's pressure and some stress, but it's the best place to learn and grow your skills.

The pay is awesome. Time off is meh. Health coverage is pretty good.

My manager and team have been pretty nice. Most people I've met here have been pretty solid. Some people are curt and straight business, but that's fine with me.

Cons

High pressure and a lot of responsibility. It ends up being long days. Might average 45 hours a week.
