Pros

Flexible work schedule for lab staff. Loose dress code interpretation of business casual. The company has gone downhill the past few years.

Cons

Huge turnover in every department. No work/home life balance. Horrible moral. Extremely hard and limited for promotions or raises. Keeps eliminating perks (coffee creamer, gym, etc). More new staff, less effective, less space.

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)
