Pros
Blue Star has great salaries, benefits, and employees/co-workers. I am always impressed with how smart and talented everyone is at the company. Clients recognize the talent and appreciate the reliable quality that the company provides. The president, Dan Sherwell, truly cares about each employee and is one of the nicest guys around! The benefits are amazing (very generous 401k and paid time off, tech talks, company events, insurance, etc). The company has many contracts and options for employees.
I anticipate that as the company continues to grow that it will get even better as even more options will come available because of the great reputation that Blue Star has with our customers and partners.
Cons
Blue Star does not have any prime contracts that I'm aware of, so slightly easier placement on contracts is not available. However, on the various contracts that Blue Star supports, it seem that generally getting placed is not difficult due to the quality of the employees and reputation of the company.
