Pros

High profile industry, relatively high pay, relatively good experience for future endeavors, looks good on resume

Cons

too sweatshop in many ways, i.e. middle mgmt tasked with producing results so they pass it on to everyone doing the work, while tools, planning, process improvement and efficiency lags behind the times

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)
