Pros

Low stress work environment. Very friendly and supportive.

Cons

Term of project positions, TOPs, are exactly that. Most low to mid level positions always start as these contract positions. It is the pathway to becoming a permanent staff member, but budgets often stand in the way. You are strung along for a year or two and then can easily be shown the door.

Pros

Big company, lots of good benefits

Cons

Departments seem to work independently of one another. Some work is never finished properly. Lots of gossip and politics.
