A decent contracting company, but benefits could be better.
Pros
1. They do a good job making sure you are paid every week as long as you get your time in. 2. Most of the administrative and recruiting staff are nice, professional, and upbeat. 3. The contracting rate is good. 4. When they hired me, everything went smoothly. There was not any "messing" around or unethical behavior which I've encountered with other contracting and staffing companies - i.e. no attempts to change the rate after we came to a verbal agreement and everything was pretty much on the level.
Cons
1. Benefits are not that great. For example, the 401K takes a year just to qualify for enrollment. 2. The health insurance is not that good. high deductible and only 100K lifetime limit - one or 2 major health events could completely max out the insurance. Dental and other benefits are ok. 3. Not much in the way of employee activities, at least for contractors it seems. The corporate office is near Richmond, Va, but I never get invited to any events or even out to lunch - I'm not even sure if they have a christmas party. 4. Not much communication about what's going on in the company. There is a newsletter once a quarter, but that's about it.
