Pros

- The company has tons of employees and normally they will seek someone who can assist you if you are having trouble. - They are willing to do what they can to give you a chance to start your career. As most people in IT know, many positions require experience even if they are entry-level.

Cons

- Low pay for the type of work you are doing; doing the same type of work almost anywhere else (especially as a full-time employee) will pay better. - Uncertain living expectations; depending on contracts you may be expected to move anywhere within the country within days, and you will need to pay for this upfront. Be sure to keep all receipts as they are terrible about reimbursing for things that they do not have multiple proof of purchase artifacts for. They also have limits to how much they reimburse which you have to find on your own. - They do not help very much with career advancement. They have certain classes you can take that give you badges, but these classes often feel like a waste of time as much of what you need to learn on a job is gained through experience. Your manager is the main person that determines the job opportunities you receive and they are normally at the exact same level you are currently working.
