Vantaggi
This really depends on the type of job you are applying for. If you are working in IT there are opportunities to learn new technologies and skills that can benefit you in your future career.
Svantaggi
orking in IT there is no life/work balance at all. Working overtime isn't an occassional occurance and getting paged almost every night while you are in bed sleeping isn't uncommon. It is an extremely stressful company to work for and their compensation practices are not fair. Being promoted doesn't ensure that you will get much or any salary increase. Even if you are an outstanding employee others doing the same job can be making an entire pay grade higher than you. The bonus structure for IT was a joke at least for those of us who were not working out of the corporate headquarters in Denver. We were frequently understaffed and a yearly reduction in workforce was quite common and did nothing to help improve the employee morale.
