Pros

I have worked for Planet Forward for two consecutive projects, spanning 3 and a half years within the nuclear industry. They are a quality team of industry experts that are well informed and communicate with their employees on a regular basis. Company is innovative and forward thinking in support of their current clients and in looking for where the next opportunity is coming from. HR and payroll support staff is very professional and responsive to employees needs.

Cons

I am not currently aware of negative concerns associated with Planet Forward.
