Pros

-Learn new technologies and tools. There are numerous J2EE technologies used in project. -Good job for freshers coming out of school. -Lot of opportunity to socialize with coworkers. -Generally consultants are paid well than employees. -This is one of the largest/complex project in J2EE.

Cons

There is a big list, -Geico doesn't allocate cubicle for consultants, consultants joining newly are placed in a dirty room with broken chairs and PCs. -Geico is not an IT company, so don't except to get treated that way. Employees are treated like a layman, consultants are treated even worse. -No parking allowed for consultants. -Internet Business Service is a complex project, you depend on others for at least one year for any work, It doesn't matter whether you are technically good or not. you may forget what really know before joining here. -There is a big learning curve before writing code. Lot of restrictions in coding, you could re-write your code 4-5 times before check-in. -Project Build and tracking process are so time consuming, you would spend 4 hours per day in checking emails, meetings, debugging other's issues and putting application build/deployment. -Always lot of pressure from management to complete the tasks in time. -Even though many J2EE technologies are used, you may not really learn anything due to high pressure to complete the task. -There is high turnover in consultants because of above reasons, most of consultants leave before completing 6 months in project.

Pros

Management is inconsistent and doesn't have their employees in mind when making important company decisions and changes. Salary is just ok but for as much profit as you make for the company as a sales agent the pay is not good...unless you know someone in management. Unfair workplace policies. No fairness whatsoever and absolutely no recognition for a job well done.

Cons

Not very good pay. Stressful work load. No recognition or employee appreciation when needed.
