Pros

competitive pay as a contractor. no worry of lack of work. loose environment so easy relax job. work from home possible.

Cons

Tight deadline should never be the excuse for quality, but here in BMO it does use this excuse, and use it very often. As IT professional it is rather painful to go through those undocumented heterogeneous codes to figure out what the problem is. Less time spend up front means significant more time spend later on but apparently management/architecturer ignore this.
