Pros
-get a clearance -good job prospects after you leave the company
Cons
-extremly low pay. Not enough to live off in the area. Company bases their business model off of hiring young kids who are desperate for work so they can take advantage by low balling them a salary that would be completely unacceptable anywhere else. -incredibly toxic staff: both on the federal side and contracting side, but especially the contracting side. Every contractor is extremely bitter and resentful towards management and will often take it out on other contractors. This makes it very difficult to work with the team because you will likely be ridiculed for speaking up or asking for direction. Training was very condensending which made it a difficult environment to ask questions in. -office is very clichey, and you will be shunned if you don't participate in toxic behavior.
