Pros

- 12 weeks of training in different modules - some trainers are very helpful and patient to help trainees with modules related questions and/or interview related questions - account managers usually try and get trainees placed - very detailed training for self-improvement - good place to start for anyone that is new to the workforce or switching careers

Cons

- very low pay (sometimes not even enough for all basic bill payments) - some trainers / internal staff are disrespectful - a very micromanaging environments that prevents "out of the box" thinking - no one is allowed to work remotely and trainees are not accommodated very well if in need

Pros

It is a job that pays.

Cons

They will promise you opportunities that don't exist. The company they contract you to will promise you work that you will not be assigned. I was a Java Consultant with a masters degree in Math and certificate in full stack and I was shoved into a manual testing position that required zero coding and constantly dangled automation in front of my face. When I was asked to look at Selenium, I studied it in some of the copious amounts of downtime i had and was reprimanded during the next meeting for 'wasting company time'. I moved from Texas to New Jersey for my first position. After contracts with the company were terminated, I was pulled off my assignment only to be abruptly fired for "lack of geoflexibility" despite willingness to move to several places they do business including NYC and even Denver. There is no accountability from them as the only response they give is "the decision is final". There is no way to appeal a blatant lie. Their company has no integrity and side with business majors over people that know how chemicals and physics and electrical components work just seem like bad life decisions. They will say you can reapply but they won't hire you. They'd full of it at every angle.
