Pros

Decent salary and bonuses. Vacation time accrual is great!

Cons

Bad management at the site levels. Too many chiefs (or wanna be chiefs). At the Worcester site, there is waaaay too much politics involved in the promotion process. It seems that technicians or analysts who are promoted to supervisor based on there expertise (which is fine) and if management likes them. What makes that even worse is there is no real training given to new supervisors to help them with the main piece of being a supervisor--- DEALING WITH PEOPLE. The only thing they're told when becoming a supervisor is don't hang out with the people who now report to you if you were friends before.

Pros

I learned a lot while working this job. The systems like Veeva and Workfront were difficult to learn at first, but once I got the hang of them it was great. There were a lot of great people working around me that wanted to see me succeed.

Cons

Working as a contract worker had it's cons. At times, it felt like I was a little bit of an afterthought in the company with some superiors because I was not a full time employee. Communication suffered at times as well.
