Business Outlook

Pros

Taking great care of employees. Stock sharing plan, funded retirement plan, funded medical plan, many benefits paid for by company so it doesn't cut into your baseline salary and takehome pay.

Cons

Contract support for customers who don't manage their people well. It seems if you work for a good contractor company, you will easily slip into a situation to be taken advantage of to do more of the work of the government employees so they don't have to train them to do much of anything productive.
