Pros

If you are among the lucky to be hired as full time staff, pay and benefits are excellent. The location is great and policies are family friendly. The atmosphere is geared towards education and knowledge sharing.

Cons

It can be very difficult to make the jump from contractor to full time employee or to make the jump from support staff to professional staff.
