Pros

Large company with room for growth if you suit their needs.They provide you with all the tools, equipment, and supplies you need.

Cons

Contractors can be held up to 2 years with no benefits then can be let go and rehired again and again as contractor still with no benefits and no promise of hire to company. Medtronic is a multi- billion dollar company that can easily afford to provide it's contractors with benefits after an initial evaluation period of no more than 6 months. 90 days would be more appropriate.

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
