Pros

They pay you even when you aren't on a project.

Cons

- Complaints go unheard and just keep getting forwarded up a chain of people that just ignore it - They sent me across the country away from family and friends to work on a "project" they had ready for me and that I was "individually picked for". I spent 3 months without a project driving to work to sit there and wait for something to happen. Once finally placed on a project it lasted about 2 months and i barely did anything on it since it was way above my level. So I've been sitting in my apartment now for nearly 3 months with no project since everyone wants someone with 4-10 years experience, 2300 miles from friends and family, and no end in sight for finding a new project.
