Good place to work, not great

Pros

You'll receive a paycheck and decent benefits

Cons

Everyone is trying to do their own thing in the corporate office. There is no sense of teamwork or trying to improve as a company, everyone is looking out for their own department.

Pros

You get a gift during the holidays... I guess that's a perk. And they offered a lot of useless training for how to find a new job.

Cons

They don't care about their contractors. It is clear that they are far more concerned with money and getting contracts no matter how it effects the people they hire. Paid horrendously poor for the amount of work they were asking for. It was an embarrassment.
