Pros

pay health benefits vacation benefits roll over to new year some are great people to work with

Cons

Sr. Management cares more about stock price and their personal bonuses than their employees or clients Resourcing is "temporary challenge" that never is fixed - 1.5-2 FTE workload is expected (but not appreciated) over promise work/life balance - very difficult to achieve AND still meet expectations (but sr level management will repeatedly denies this) good vacation time but rarely approved to use - management attitude is it rolls over into new year and you'll get paid for when you leave the company metrics metrics metrics - systems systems systems - spend as much time reporting what you do as actually doing
