Pros

Flexible work arrangements, good benefits and vacation time.

Cons

Good benefits are becoming more and more expensive with less coverage. Jobs are being outsourced to India as fast as the company can give them away and fire employees. Management withholds information until it is convenient for their purposes. And my personal favorite, they not only give your job away from some employees that have been there for more than 20 years, but they also want to you train your offshore replacement.

Pros

You are your own business You can set your own schedule but it better include many hours You hold the keys to your own success Great name to work for

Cons

Low base salary Very time consuming. If you have a family it is hard to balance your life. You better have a lot of money set aside because the cost to start up is high May be forced to work outside your comfort zone Cut throat
