what you read on this site is about 90% true. do what you want but take it from a 4 year ex employee. RUN --- I am not being a whiny baby and ripping the company because I left but put it this way. People will lie to you ranging from potential income, future success, life, everything you can think of JUST SO YOU STAY. You're right this is a job, but it is also a way of life to these people, a cult like atmosphere. If you do take the job you will not see that in the first year because they hide those things from trainees until you become management. In the first year you will proabably think it is fun but it will begin to fade because you realize there is much more to life and better jobs with a good future. I am in pharma sales and if you can get into this industry now I would strongly recommend it. This industry has its challenges as well but nothing compared to a crappy job like enterprise. Management has a meeting once a month and forecasts how many people they will lose and perform damage control measures to not lose people in bunches. If you want to work for a company like that then be my guest but remember you heard it here first. there are pros to the job but they are heavily outweighed by the cons.
