Default Re: Just got my degree in business. Do I really want to work at ERAC?

The truth is that ERAC is just like a pro sports team or any other fortune 500 corporation.

You have to work hard
It won't be easy in the beginning
There might be long hours sometimes
You might question if its worth it
The bullshit flows downhill and the cash uphill or so it seems
There is a lot to learn
Gotta read between the lines
Gotta hone your people skills
Gotta hone your negotiating skills
You will have mentors in positions above you to guide you
You will have to make choices and figure out what matters to you

Much like that commercial where the guy has to fight the dragon and then his sword turns him into a US Marine, so too will your mettle and character be forged IF you can hang in there.

I'm 29, and making good coin with this company. I'm a branch manager with 207 car fleet. The hours are tough, but I don't care bc my tru brothers and family are those that have come up through the ranks with me. We have a bond you won't find in other workplaces.
