Pros

Good pay, a laptop, and travel.

Cons

New manager must've been his first time being handed a "gun". I was being given instructions from the top of the company, but my manager was upset that I wasn't contributing towards his responsibilities and instead of asking me to change focus, he put me in a performance review which, strangely, had me doing things not part of my job description and new to me.

Completion of the review's task was ultimately late by a day and I decided to quit after he told me that "it wouldn't look good". A kid with a gun.
