Pros

Great benefits for regular employees.

Cons

Contractors get low-balled. It is not easy to get promoted to a regular employee, as some of my coworkers remained as contractors despite staying at EA since 2011.

Contractors also don't get benefits. One of the contractors I worked with died, and his family barely got anything; he was under Pro Unlimited.

Advice to Management

Stop being cheap and treat contractors like regular employees. Contractors need health insurance, too.
