      Pros

      Great benefits and great teammates

      Cons

      You are identified early in your career as a person with potential or without. Once you are put into either category, you can't get out and the doors opened or closed to you are very different.

      Decent Start to Engineering

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Little supervision, so this is good if you work well independently. Pay is pretty good for entry level position. Work is not too difficult. Hours are fairly flexible so long as you reach your 40 hours. As a temp, your vacation days are also flexible.

      Cons

      I was in a group with no growth and improvements. I was not challenged enough and the work became tedious. I was conducting the same test for several hundred samples which did not teach me much.
