Pros

* Salary & Benefits * Management seems understanding of Project team plights sometimes * Opportunity to grow * New Study Trusted Process (Quick start camp) cool idea to get all plans, budgets done prior to KOM * Some good team members

Cons

* Yes man CRO. Whatever the Sponsor says go. No support to push back from management Finance Management System: Duplication of effort in 2 systems that don't talk to each other * Contractors assigned to projects that just collect checks and don't do work which makes work/life balance a challenge. * Resourcing Challenges: You will have to do work that is not in your job description * New Process Roll outs are not streamlined or communicated effectively * Resourcing is only managed by the Director level and above so if you're managing projects, you wont get to see reports without a request that takes days * IT Help desk always backlogged * No SMEs available or points of contract for help * Employee Resource Groups or Diversity is not heavily promoted. Hardly see this activity on the Intranet

Pros

There were no pros that I know of.

Cons

The company would set the maximum hours allowed on a specific publication project, and that cap was always insufficient, so the freelancer would be expected to work for free, despite scope creep. Also, timelines were unreasonably short. Poor communication with management meant things took longer than they should have. I left after one project.
