Pros

Good pay, experience isn't necessarily required. You can usually move across different departments. Lots of days off for holidays.

Cons

If you plan on working in corporate, it's a lot easier if you're male and Orthadox Jewish (Chasidish is preferred). Otherwise don't bother trying to get promoted to management if your department doesn't already have women in it. Managers tend to get very upset if you talk to people in other departments. Especially if you're female. Dress code is strictly enforced and is done in a very disrespectful manner. Supervisors are expected to keep tabs on how long every woman's skirt is and reprimand them if it doesn't strictly adhere to the rules. Depending on your department, get ready to keep a very, very close eye on the precisely 30 minute lunch breaks. Supervisors log your times and you'll get in trouble if you go over. The downside of not requiring prior experience is that managers often don't know how to manage well. They'll give you a large workload, sympathize when you say there isn't enough time to get all of it done but then come back around and then criticize you later for not getting all of it done.

Pros

Some nice co-workers across different departments They only hire because people keep leaving.. so if you need a job to fill a role they have, they will take you to fill a position.

Cons

-Extreme workload and high expectations for little pay. -PTO has to be used for a Jewish holiday if you want to get paid. They give you a mousepad showing if you will get paid on certain days. You work all year long and regular employees only get 1 day for Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years. -Micromanagement and consent surveillance. You are tracked on the computer and how long you stay in a program or if you are away from your desk for too long it will get flagged. -They hired a new company from the outside to monitor you as well to the point where you can't use your phone. They want to give you a flip phone. -Very toxic management and HR staff... very unfair and will give you zero give if you need to work from home.. they will tell you use your PTO. -Zero career growth whatsoever, everyone. -Favoritism gets you higher up in the company. -Very behind in tech & software on the corporate side but they want to have the latest for the vendors. -High revolving door, very churn & burn mentality. -End to WFH on Fridays... You will only be coming in for 4 hours... tough if you are traveling from far away... -Zero culture and no work-life balance
