Pros

- low stress environment - there are good jobs if you get in the right click

Cons

- look elsewhere for "product development" - it doesn't exist - no developers can be found - mostly just people filling space and wasting time (no work gets done) - brain drain (too many good people leaving) - incompetent line managers

Pros

Provided health insurance. Good coworkers Good exposure to team at client site If you have a good technical lead, the job can be great!

Cons

You have 2 bosses (Technical lead from Client Site) and your PPD boss. PPD Boss does not know what is going on If you have a bad technical lead, your life can be miserable. Pay is low No protection from abusive technical lead (coworkers on same team can have a drastically different experience)
