Pros

Great host site to work at. Host site includes contractors in many of their worker wellbeing programs,. Compass itself has good healthcare.

Cons

You've got a hospitality company employing experienced lab workers as contractors. Unfortunately, there is no growth with this company and little appreciation for going over and beyond what's required of you. Salary is hourly and does not reflect experience and education. PTO is dismal; you don't acquire additional leave hours for years worked. Upper leadership does not invest in your happiness and will not advocate for you. At the end of the day, you are expendable because you are a contractor serving a client.

Pros

Autonomy, trust, not being tied to a desk, and encouragement to bring your authentic self to work are among the highlights. However, as a contractor, this may vary from account/site to site. Also, annual raises awarded, despite what the client schedule for increases looks like. A huge network of subsidiary companies

Cons

My current client site is one of the higher paying in my region, which is a good problem to have for some time, but leaves little room to grow financially. Also, growth rarely if ever happens staying in the same account, so financial/role growth will rest mostly upon pursuing other opportunities at different Compass accounts.
