Pros

annual bonuses (not guaranteed), good PTO, friendly co-workers

Cons

no raises, even for cost of living. Negotiate for a very high salary that you will be happy with for a few years before accepting a position. All work starts at a contract through CHC, which may make it more difficult to negotiate the higher wage.

Pros

Good benefits with remote work

Cons

Super unstable, coworkers getting laid off with no notice. Outsourcing jobs to India. The remaining employees expected to pick up the extra work.
