Pros

Great brands, corporate history and legacy. Excellent breadth of projects and company scale allows for career progression.

Cons

Significant lack of resources and employees consistently over worked and underpaid. Management are very out of touch with the staff, and in denial when it comes to addressing issues. As blatant as the issues are, they are only focused on the sales targets and have little regard for the person working behind the desk to deliver on projects.

Pros

The colleagues I worked with were great, friendly, helpful. Because the colleagues were great, I'd love to work there full-time, but this was a short contract.

Cons

The supervisor I was ultimately working for had never worked in digital-related products, in which I had decades of experience. He seemed to be unaware of what every colleague would be telling me (I was interviewing colleagues using a software the manager was intending to propose use for firm-wide). Both the colleagues I interviewed, and the internal technical staff I was speaking with knew the project would not function as he seemed intent on ... forcing(?) it do so. I gave him the resulting report of its users' feedback, and I was finished with my contract. He had gone through 2 other women in this same role, already. And he hired a male after me who delivered esentially the same results. Because I wasn't there, I have no idea of the dream outcome this manager attained, or switched to, later.
