Pros

good housing and compensation in training compared to other consultancies; however, low annual salary once on the project. their own marketing team is able to give you many interview opportunities even from big names like Morgan Stanley or Goldman Sachs.

Cons

Poor management; very few people understand technologies; most of the management people are business people; If they do not like you, they will put you on a cold bench where few people cares; what they really care about was whether they could sell you instead of your feelings and your future development

Pros

Marlabs have indeed placed me with their client that had a need for my skills. I did find the my interlocutor recruiter to be a pleasant person. The contract stipulated payments at 30 days after customer signed my timesheet for each month of work.

Cons

1. The company was late by at least three weeks to complete negotiations with the customer about my pay rate before I could start and it was difficult to get any information on the process even though I was told the customer authorized to hire me. 2. I did not have wisdom and/or option to include penalty clause into the contract for unreasonably delayed payments. 3. The first two payments were delayed and overdue by 4-3 weeks each. 4. Once my contract was completed and terminated after 6.5 months, my 5ths payment was overdue by 5 weeks. My 6ths is overdue by 5 weeks now even though I was assured it should have been released last week and would have been 4 weeks overdue. My 7th and final payment "should be processed soon after" in the words of my recruiter, but I have no based for any confidence I will get my two final payments.
