Decent once you are out of 2 year contract

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

-Good connections into big companies -Negotiation for good pay once out of 2 year contract

Cons

-communication is terrible -benefits aren't great -Within the 2 year contract you are paid terribly -training isn't good -training to prepare for client placement is even worse -Once you actually negotiate for higher pay outside of the first 2 years, all the extra pay gets tacked onto a daily bonus.. so if you take time off you only get the base pay and miss the daily bonus on the days you aren't actually working
