Pros

Flexible hours, great location near park and easy walk into Hartford, trips to Pratt & Whitney with opportunities to see the shop floor and cool machines

Cons

Mindlessly boring. Actual work time is extremely low and no one seems to care, which creates this weird atmosphere where everyone feels kind of useless but you're getting paid so what's the big deal? The pay isn't bad for starting out, but long term it's not great, but again you're not actually doing a whole lot so technically you're being compensated fairly. Eventually, it kind of just comes down to dignity - there's nothing about this work that's satisfying, but if you're ok with that, then it's fine.

Pros

Mostly good people to work with. A couple bad apples. Flexible work schedule and accommodating when possible.

Cons

This is not a long term employer. No such thing as a direct hire full time employee. It is a contract company and when a contract is complete, so is your paycheck and/or job. True from junior employees up through executive staff. If you don't have billable hours to a contract, beware of the furlough/layoff. Very high turnover of employees. The bottom line will always win.
