Pros

When full time the bonus is always great, the benefits are the best, work from home flexibility, the harder you work the faster you will move up but you have to speak up or they will think you dont want more responsibility, easy to move within the company- they would rather move you than fire you, if you ever consider moving out of GS - expect at least a 15-20k salary increase. Very flexible with temps.

Cons

Temps - if they dont need you anymore you will find out from your agent who will call you to tell you to pack up because you have till the end of the week - management will not provide with comments. they will not give you feedback unless you go back to your agency and the agency calls HR which in turn calls the manager who probably seats next to you. Full time - long hours (sep-feb) - - no overtime - cant take more than 2 weeks vacation at once.

Pros

The firm encourages and supports to change teams, which is helpful in expanding experience or moving away if you aren't happy with your team

Cons

The promotion has become very opaque lately. They hardly give out promotions, but make you slog and overwork the whole year in the name of it. Basically, you have worked 200% and made to look like a fool by the end of the year.
