"I have worked there as a contractor on multiple projects and the people are very nice and outgoing. I hope I could land on a job there again in the future. The environment is great and safe. My Supervisor voluntary helps me look for other opportunities within the company as my contract work is coming to an end. It is very convenient to get lunch and breakfast in addition to the fact that this company has many lounges with microwaves and refrigerators."
