Pros
Very laid back environment. you can come in whenever as long as you complete your 8 hours. and attend meetings
Cons
I worked for the SIG and our department went down fast people were leaving and quitting and getting let go for the lack of work. The life of contractor. and your career route could not go the way you want it to. they are going to direct in the area in which you are needed not exactly what you want to focus on. and sometimes youll find yourself without work

Pros
10% of your annual salary is put towards a 401k. This is a free benefit.
Cons
Horrific work hours and lack of competent technical staff. Promotions to management are based on politics and the ability to bring in business. Problem is bringing in business requiring technical ability when there are few if any technically astute workers means lots of overtime for the worker bees.
