Pros

Good company name on resume. A good place to start, I guess.

Cons

You don't learn anything. If this is your entry-level job, get out of there fast.

Horrible managers that are incompetent. Brown-nosing or flirting will get you in the high ranks.

No diversity. Nosy people are always staring and being inappropriate (to females).

Layoffs happen so often.

Advice to Management

Help entry-level/new grads actually learn something. Keep the females away from creepy bosses.
