Pros

Compensation is very good compared to others in the industry. Account managers seem to value you as an employee. 401(k) plan offered to hourly consultants. Minimal "paperwork" required for consultants to report their time and billing. Consultants paid weekly less than one week after turning in time sheets. Medical, dental, life and other benefits are offered. Hourly consultants are paid W-2, alleviating the need to self-incorporate.

Cons

Not much opportunity to grow or expand into new technologies. Compensation stays flat during your contract term. Medical benefits are expensive for hourly consultants. It's often better to find your own benefits. No opportunity to be paiid as an independent consultant for those who are already incorporated.

Pros

good contract customer was expectin at least a year plus of working with a a company called microsoft. made good friends at the last job i did with them.

Cons

contract barely lasted 5 months for me, less for others. I felt used as a tax write off, They laid us off without notice. We had suspected it would happen again after the first time 300 people got let go. When it happened the first time we were surprised now the second time I got to be angry. They lack communication and knowing how to handle an overpopulated work place and proper protocol about laying people off. for some people who relocated and they have still not recieved pay and since their contract is over they may not even recieve it.
