Svantaggi
- There is nowhere to hide when things aren't going well as you are 100% responsible for managing your project. - Lots of late nights particularly when under pressure/deadlines - Company is extremely picky about who they bring in, not really a con from their perspective but as a candidate it could be quite disheartening. - Some people don't like to cold call and while it isn't a majority of the job by any stretch, you cannot be afraid to pick up the phone!
