Pros

Ability to travel. I would say the pay but even thats pretty poor.

Cons

Very poor medical insurance/coverage for consultants overseas, management - they really do not look after consultants or employees, you complete very arduous work and keep their clients extremely happy but are never repaid for the time and work put in. You sit around and wait on new contracts but management will never take the time to let you know if they've been signed off and would be happy for you to turn other work down and sit by earning nothing.

Pros

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

Bonus scheme isn't the motivator they think it can be.

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.
