Pros

Contracts are usually with Big Pharmaceutical companies, you gain Great experience, true resume builder.

Cons

Pay is SUBSTANTUALLY less than direct hire employees, your contract can be terminated at ANY time. I was literally in the field one day and laid off the next along with 400 other people. Despite having a extension on your contract terms you can and will be let go without notice.

Pros

The layoffs were handled quietly and unexpectedly, even though there were some early signs. They didn’t share who else was affected, but it was clearly more than just me.

Cons

They’re doing layoffs in phases, and my position was part of the most recent round.
