Pros

Flexible working hours, remote opportunity, friendly co-workers, established processes, and supportive managers, exposure to different projects as well as different clients.

Cons

For me, it would be the business aspect. Working here feels more like I'm a contractor who is constantly asking my company/manager for more work. In addition to the work, I have to make sure that I am profitable for the company and adequately utilized and not taking more than the budgeted hours for tasks. Also, some major US holidays are not celebrated (eg MLK and President's Day - we are getting Good Friday instead, strangely enough).

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)
