You don't have to love working at EM to get something valuable from the experience. Take the training, learn new systems, volunteer for work that teaches you something, and leave with skills you didn't have before. Those skills can either help you stay or give you a much easier path out. Either way, you're better off than simply waiting for the company to decide your future.

It's a load of BS.
