Lots of big talk, not much followthrough

Business Outlook

Pros

Great place to learn about the industry and lots of opportunities. Benefits are very good and compensation is competitive.

Cons

Top down management that is completely unresponsive. If you don't fit in to the company image or standard, your credibility and commitment will be questioned constantly. Don't even get your own desk, and good luck seeing the sun at all in the winter. Not recommended for fresh grads.
