Pros

Really interesting and knowledgeable specialists to work with when you can

Cons

Lack of structured training/ support for new hires with less direct experience Complex structure and Byzantine organisation / chains of commands and process Salaries comparatively low for industry and reluctance to hire full teams in the interests of greater profit margins - leads to a lot of work on your plate Bonuses aren't especially exciting

Great company to work for. Company cares about people on the personal level and are willing to help you grow.

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.
