Pros

Pay was high while it lasted

Cons

Benefits are poor. Company will throw you under the bus and lay you off the moment a federal government client complains to them. I was hired to ask questions and give feedback to the client - when I did that the client complained and asked for me to be removed from the team. What a joke!

Pros

Hard to say any if at all. I get a paycheck (that took months to be paid correctly)

Cons

No wage increase despite others making way over SCA limits, no adjustments for cost of living, same people recognized for doing bare minimum, insurance premiums are insane, no allowance for unpaid leave, PM totally unaware of what even happens on the contract, no one in upper management takes accountability for mistakes and contractors are blamed, many inadequate hires made just to have a warm body
