Pros

Opportunity to take on a lot of responsibilities and learn how to manage high levels of stress.

Cons

You will be paid less than industry standards to do more than average amount of work. If you are a woman or minority, there is zero chance of promotion. There is a minimum required 12% overtime for salaried employees at the corporate office. Hours are not flexible nor negotiable.
