Pros

Work from home - really helpful for appointments and life style balance including just getting more work done as in the office it can be hard with so many people pulling you away Contracting Salary is good

Cons

Not recognized much because you are not an FTE No bonus even though you do just as much work, sometimes more than an FTE No benefits either No career progression plan or growth opportunities Burn you out though with the heavy workloads but always trying to save money so wont get additional help when it is needed

Pros

Local environment is very friendly and laid back. Everyone is helpful. The benefit package is nice as well. We do get the option to purchase company shares, 100% company match up to 6% for 401k plus additional deposits.

Cons

Our company was recently purchased by Rio Tinto and their IT groups are very secular and specialized which makes it hard to communicate and get things resolved. I’ve also compared my salary to others with the same job title within manufacturing companies in my state and found my salary is way below the benchmark.
