Pros
Contracts with companies can range from 1-3 years and often get renewed (but, there are never any guarantees!) If a contract ends and you have been a valued employee, they will try to find work for you on another project.
Cons
You are a contract employee so some companies will not share all the information you need to do your job effectively and efficiently. You hear all the gossip and can get drawn into the politics even though you don't work for the company and it can put you in an uncomfortable position with managers try to get information out of you.
