Pros

Good growth potential for fresh-graduates. Work can be exciting and challenging.

Cons

There is not always work to do. Depending on contracts you may have nothing to do for extended periods. There is also the possibility that you will be working on a project that will never go anywhere just to burn money. Growth potential dependent on projects and supervisor.
