      Pros

      It was a special contract out of Iraq and Kuwait, I do not think this opportunity is still available. The pay was pretty good overall, all living expenses and housing were paid for. Healthcare benefits etc... 3 paid vacations a year, each vacation is 2 weeks. Learned a lot about the world and how the US military works from a financial stand point. Some people made so much money working over there that they basically retired (For those that saved) when they went got home.

      Cons

      Active warzone, so expect to be shot at with mortars and rockets. Minimum 84 hour work weeks, heavy work load. Although I heard that some people in this position at other locations spent most of their time watching movies and playing games. That was not my experience though. Office politics can be annoying, too many layers of managment. You are essentially an arm of the US military and its giant bureaucracy.

      Pros

      Great established systems and procedures. Responsive Project and Corporate Management. Great pay and benefit package.

      Cons

      It is not exactly a "Con" per se, but as in any large company, you will find a few who will try to "tear down people, the system or the establishment itself" due to their bad experiences with a company. Avoid these personnel at all costs. Every company goes through this, but every company tries to avoid it. Listen to all comments and take it all in, but make your own determination.
