Recruiting
Pros: Most of the people I work with are wonderful.  Ability to work from home is nice.
Cons: As a contractor you are treated as a second-class employee.  We receive very few benefits - my agency does not provide vacation or paid holidays. We have little to no input on where or for whom you will work, will be moved from one group to another without consult or warning, and can be let go after years of employ with no explanation.  You have absolutely no say in the direction of your career, and attempts to move upward or into a new position are thwarted.
