Pros

Provides entry into the field via big name clients, where it's then a tossup if you'll love/hate your day to day.

Cons

Pays below market rate for software roles. Very few benefits. Lies to you about contract-to-hire situations. Not transparent. Quite cutthroat. Oblivious to how much they think they provide value to developers. Thinks they're doing such life changing work. Completely neglectful of how exploitative they are.
