Pros

25 days of PTO, 30 days of PTO after 5 years

Cons

Some teams and departments do not require contractors to work on-call for production support. So you end up with contractors that write lazy code without production in mind. Then you (as a Discover employee) are responsible for working on-call and fixing any production issues, and you have 15 minutes to hop on a conference call with support teams and probably your manger.
