Pros
  • Work matches job description.
  • Decent, easy job.
  • Weekly pay cycle.
  • Luxurious accommodation.
  • Leads are nice and personable.
Cons
  • Advancement is rare; you must know someone.
  • Individual temps/contractors are limited to a maximum of 36 months of employment.
  • Because you're a temp/contractor, you're not entitled to any benefits (PTO, health insurance, low pay).
  • Because yourself and roughly 90% of your fellow employees are temps/contractors, turnover is frequent, and the quality of work reflects that.
Advice to Management

Ditch the temps/contractors and convert your contingent workers into regular full-time employees (RFTs).
