Pros

-One and only pro is the option to work from home

Cons

--Can be dropped from an assignment with no notice and no promise of another assignment. --When a project ends, you are left in limbo by the coordinating team who do not respond to phone calls or email regarding a new assignment --Project goal expectations are aligned across a team but search resources are not shared evenly which put some recruiters at severe disadvantage --Distant, non-approachable management with no coaching and no response to questions --Divisiveness and confrontation pervades the work culture of some projects --Micromanagement tools that smother innovation and autonomy. --Extremely low hourly rates, poor benefit choice
