Pros

Good if just starting out and trying to get foot in the door. Company provides training for recent grads to get placed with client company. Provides bench pay for in between client assignments. Health care benefit is excellent. Low monthly premiums and low deductible. Although no maternity leave offered in the lower rank. Unsure if offered at all. 2 weeks PTO. 3 days sick leave. Pay was usually stable but experienced weeks without pay due to company's faulty timesheet and PTO system.

Cons

Severely underpaid from the very beginning to the end. Will charge clients for Senior role pay, but will pay employee a newbie pay. Work culture is toxic as many are competing to keep their job due to being on H1 visa. Even managers are political and falsely talk badly about employees to upper management. Very difficult to change roles as they like to keep you in the same role. Will be moved around the country and terminated if you don't want to work with specific clients or don't wish to relocate. Very difficult to resolve any issue with help desk or HR even with escalation from managers.
