Pros

I would try to think of a few, but they have left such a bad taste in my mouth that there isn't anything good about them

Cons

Wages are not competitive compared to other contract houses Never keep in contact with contract employees, at one point wasn't contacted by anyone for over a year Always come up with excuses for why they can not give out raises Always find a way to make something your fault, even when it isn't Feel taken advantaged of because I was hired right out of college and did not know what a decent wage was for the market because of lack of information on it Very greedy people Honestly work for aerotek, these people don't know what they are doing

Learning to read and understand some complex contracts to set up billing is interesting but achievable.

Pros

Working at this company has been a truly positive experience for me. It’s a place where I’ve been able to learn and develop my skills, and I really appreciate that they invest in my growth by paying for my certifications. I’m also involved in special projects with high added value, which has had a strong impact on my career development. What makes the biggest difference for me is the way they support me as a mom. Having the option to work remotely when needed is extremely important, and it’s something we rarely find elsewhere. I’ve never felt judged for being a mother—quite the opposite. They understand my responsibilities at home while ensuring that the client is always satisfied. This balance means a lot to me, and it makes me feel valued both as an employee and as a person. Overall, I’m truly grateful to be part of a company that invests in my future, trusts me with meaningful work, and respects my personal needs.

Cons

Due to the global economic situation, salary increases and bonuses have been impacted.
