Pros

Nice campus, the gym is free, some events happen and you get you hang out with coworkers. The work is not too bad and there isnt too much micromanaging

Cons

As a contractor, I feel as though I am limited in my opportunity in both duration, potential, and skills. Some of the events and giveaways are full time employee only

Thank you for sharing your feedback and for the positive comments about our campus, wellness offerings and collaborative work environment. Contract roles are designed to support evolving business needs and may have defined scope, duration, and structure. We understand that this can sometimes feel limiting in terms of long-term opportunities or participation in certain employee programs. Because contractors are employed by a separate employer, eligibility for certain company-sponsored events or giveaways may differ from those offered to full-time employees. That said, the FlexWorkforce program continues to partner with contractors’ Employers of Record (EORs) to encourage engagement and recognition initiatives that support a positive experience. Contractors are also welcome to apply for open full-time opportunities when they become available. We value the contributions of our external workforce and are committed to continuously improving clarity, transparency, and overall experience.
