Pros

I had a few really lovely coworkers.

Cons

It really started to go downhill around the time of the INC/inVentiv merger. My department lost a lot of employees and our leadership had the brilliant idea to consolidate responsibilities across job titles, without actually changing our job titles or salaries, or hiring new employees. I broached the topic of a promotion with my manager multiple times over multiple years since I was fulfilling the responsibilities of a role above my level and receiving positive performance feedback. But it was never the right time and there was never a business need (despite so many people leaving...), so eventually I found another job and quit. Suddenly it WAS the right time for a promotion and a raise! Except the "raise" offered by this company with over $1 billion reported annual revenue was significantly less than I was offered to work at a non-profit. Oops!

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.
