Pros

good knowledge sharing database, nice place to learn for newbies

Cons

very poor work life balance, be prepared to work average 11+ hours per day, and be prepared to work until 2 or 3 AM at least once per week. Company tried to fix this but failed again and again. Now just put more workload and pressure on its employee and manager and fire whoever unwilling to obey this work hour schedule

Pros

Provided health insurance. Good coworkers Good exposure to team at client site If you have a good technical lead, the job can be great!

Cons

You have 2 bosses (Technical lead from Client Site) and your PPD boss. PPD Boss does not know what is going on If you have a bad technical lead, your life can be miserable. Pay is low No protection from abusive technical lead (coworkers on same team can have a drastically different experience)
