Pros

Nice location, ok pay. I liked the work and the technology was great. Lunch catered in very often and co-workers are nice.

Cons

Contractors treated badly, and if you try to get a direct position they put up all kinds of barriers. Zero paid holiday, No insurance. You do not get invited to annual holiday event. They have very poorly laid out in-house software. But most of all, even if your work is SPECTACULAR, since you are a contractor you will be treated like a 2nd class citizen. That is unless you know someone in management. So, yeah, there is a lot of discrimination.

Not as Good as it Used to be

Pros

Decent benefits Good coworkers Has Great corporate meetings at top notch facilities

Cons

It used to be a great place to work but as you gain seniority and approach the upper limit of your salary range, things go downhill. You are continually reminded that you are "highly" paid and expectations become unreasonable. My manager told me I earned too much money for him to “waste" time with me and provide any guidance. I was only asking for 1 hour a month to review my projects. Also, there is limited ability for advancement unless you are willing to relocate and part of the “good ole boys” network.
