Pros

You can make a lot of money if you don't mind working 12 hour shifts indefinitely

Cons

When interviewed and the question of overtime comes up listen to what they ask. They will ask if you mind working overtime. What they do not tell you is you will be working days and days without a day off. I did 18 days in a row someone else did 40 days in a row without a day off. The levels of management and interference they provide is ridiculous. There client is unpredictable and you can find yourself in trouble for things you are not aware with no support of management.

Pros

Good exposure to a large, complex organization with cross-functional collaboration. Opportunities to take on responsibility and learn quickly if you are proactive. Some strong internal frameworks and experienced individuals to learn from. Visibility across different teams and business units.

Cons

Lack of standardized processes creates unnecessary inefficiencies and rework. Too much reliance on individual knowledge instead of scalable systems. Cross-team communication is often reactive rather than coordinated, which slows execution. Roles and ownership are frequently unclear, leading to misalignment and finger-pointing. Tools exist but are not fully implemented or consistently used, resulting in avoidable manual work.
