Pros

Having the title on your CV that's all

Cons

Extremely long hours. Never ending work pressure throughout the year. Too much office politics and bum licking managers. No bonus. Technology guys are seen as slaves to business and they act as Gods.

Pros

Great benefits (PTO, healthcare, etc.) for FTEs

Cons

Everything else - Carousel of management changes - Vague and ever-changing role/job descriptions and associated metrics - The constant feeling that we're all about to be laid off but must "prove" our value in the meantime
