Your salary will be totally based on your number of years experience not what you bring to the table or how proficient you are in your skills. If a 5 years exp employee lacks skills but you can do that work still he will be paid more than you

No job security. If you get in as a contractor then no value for you. They will differentiate you and the actual employee. If you are sick on some days as a human being, they don’t respect it and mark a black dot on your name for taking a leave. Then without no notice prior minimum of 30 days, they will fire your right before one week of last working day. Horrible manager and mentor who were women. So the moral of the story is a woman’s worst enemy is another woman.

Job security - Bad
