Pros

Competitive salary (coming in the door Benefits start on day one Savings Plan (401K) and Retirement Plan (vested after 3 years)

Cons

High over head ((i.e. too many high level managers, BD, sector positions that do not directly support a customer base, etc.) Too many 'leaders' (all drinking the muscle juice and not talking to each other) Little to no growth potential (depending were you are - on contract or support position) Compensation behind on equity adjustments (wait until people threaten to leave).

Pros

Work week usually isn't much over 40 hours. Relatively stable employment. More or less professional workplace, though some of the politics and culture are way different than the average private sector office because of the nature of the contracting business.

Cons

It is contract labor - you really can't work on projects or purchase anything that isn't funded by the customer. This really limits creativity and ability to innovate in our field.

Financially stable, not going anywhere, work is reasonably easy given the circumstances and nature of the clients, immediate management helpful

Cons

Poor communication between coworkers, management friendlier than most average workers, corporate culture is not as collaborative as it should be given the nature of the work
