"My work they placed me at challenges me but not all the time. It is a Medical IT/IS Department that maintains user access via a ticketing system. I also do web-based user interface programming as needed."

"It is a regret they do not have any plan to leave some internship there, especially during projects. They use an Indian group to save capital. But I could understand that."

"I love the freedom to work whenever and where I wish. I hate the inconsistent work and the uneven scheduling that can arise."

"The freedom to do the job based on your skill and given the trust to complete said job to the best of your ability."

"I like the freedom and the opportunity to control when and where I work. I don't hate anything, but I wish that the benefits associated with working as a contractor were better."

"Love the creative part, depending on the project, either hate or love when it ends!"

"It was difficult for me as a junior developer to not have a team surrounding me to help me in areas where I may struggle. In addition, the firm I was contracting with agreed that a team of developers is more beneficial and hence terminated my contract to hire a web development firm. I plan on joining a web development firm in the future."

"In contract base you are your own boss, and what I hate most is after certain months you start looking for job/project again."

"Flexibility was the key awesome factor. And also being able to ask for more hours when needed was great."

"I love everything, I have been able to work from home for quite some time, which has been a blessing both to me in decreased drive time, and a huge increase in productivity for the companies I work for due to increased work."

"Well, learning new systems is good."
