Pros

if you find the right position and office, you will not be too micro-managed. okay pay. decent benefits (was better at the beginning). client base is fun and appreciative.

Cons

pay, benefits, praise, work to home life, bonus, management style, upper management style, basically everything is going down hill (the drain) FAST. they are throwing away good people and they don't care - plus you have to be in the top 10% to get a decent bonus, which is a large amount of total pay. IT systems are a nightmare.
