Pros

Compensation. If you can get an offer to work there they typically overpay certain customer facing positions.

Cons

There is a reason they overpay for certain jobs, to lure you inside the company. The job description is typically dishonest. You will be doing a lot of unpleasant work putting out fires all day long and listening to disgruntled clients that is not in the job description from their online job postings. This company has serious system and infrastructure issues complicated by impotence and incompetence at all levels of management from the CEO down to the lowest manager. Their cutlure is a synergy of stupidity and ignorance laced with a sprinkling of self delusion and egomania.
