Pros

They pay a decent starting salary. You are rewarded for progressing your personnel quals eg CEng, IEng etc. Travel/food/accommodation, all paid on corporate card, no personal costs.

Cons

If you aren't billing to a project HR will be asking why not. Expected to travel a lot to site, doesn't matter how far away it may be. Need to fly down somewhere for a meeting, expected to do it night before, or first thing in the morning.
