Pros

Some work life balance in some areas

Cons

There is no career growth at this company or if it is is extremely slow. Often management prefers to close vacant positions than to promote someone. Salary increases and bonus are very bad if any. The R&D is bad, tight deadlines, low budget, and they pr get to ship n unfinished/imperfect product (printers and presses) than investing in R&D. They often shelve programs just because they decide to save money.

Pros

Fantastically little manager oversight. I hate being micromanaged. Give me some direction and let me work. In this way, it is great. I contract through a staffing agency, who I also never talk to. A dream. Pay is good. Expectations are low (which could be a con for some).

Cons

There is really no manager guidance, and hardly any feedback. Managers aren't allowed to meet regularly with contractors. Very hierarchical. Super slow task initiation. SUPER slow implementation. Like a six-month to one-year dev backlog. Not a good fit if you're hungry and a change-agent and live to make work processes better. Did I say slow? I meant glacial. And tribal/political. And scrumfall dysfunction. Other than that, it's great.
