Pros

The people are the company's greatest asset, second only to diverstiy of services offered.

Cons

Very low pay and too many pointless midmanagers who are there only because they were there already in the late 90s, before the big expansion following September 11th and the Iraq occupation. Because of them, it's very difficult to progress or even get a pay rise.

Pros

You spend 98% of your time working with and communicating with your client employer. If that's a good fit, it's wonderful.

Cons

If the client terminates your role, it's likely you'll be laid off by Control Risks - unless they have a very specific role in-house or with another client to offer to you. If you're laid off by CR, it's unlikely you'll be paid severance.
