Vantaggi
I met some great people and got some experience under my belt. Being completely honest, it could be fun sometimes, and they do have some nice perks.
Svantaggi
I would not wish this job upon anybody. You're working 10 hour days, and you're lucky to take 15 minutes for lunch without people wondering where you were for so long. The environment would get extremely tense and hostile if reqs weren't being brought in, meetings weren't being booked, and if you weren't the best office, it's safe to say you were just the worst. It didn't help that the manager my colleagues and I reported to sat in a different state and was unavailable a majority of the time, but if you were away for a few minutes (maybe in the bathroom or grabbing a QUICK lunch) there was a mini lecture to be had. Finally, feeling belittled and unappreciated was a big issue that my colleagues and I also faced. It didn't matter how great you were doing one day because if your numbers weren't consistently spot on, you were frowned upon by others. If you don't believe me, take into account that in the 4 1/2 months I worked there, 6 people (myself included)quit or were fired.
