Pros

Flexible. Should work in ICD if you want to move in your career.

Cons

No matter how much you work, never gets motivated or appreciated. Management would never stand on your side if something comes up, Instead will blame you for everything. Underpaid for the amount of work you do. Once you are salaried they expect you to work overtime and will not even give you comp time. Even if you have masters degree they dont care and will offer you minimum wage.

Pros

I have an excellent line manager and have been here four years so far. I'm sure the issues I might mention are the same everywhere. No one has a 40 hr work week in this job line.

Cons

There is a shift from when I started...big push on metrics. 8 to 10 days on site expected every month, with push for 10. Ability to promote is harder and slower. Every two years IF you are great. And that's no guarantee....which causes staff to job hop to other companies.
