Pros
Prestigious project with traditional British engineers but not enough of them.
Cons
The project is being overrun by Bechtel doing very little except their usual, which is ripping off the tax payer. They put themselves in top positions which makes their US company big bucks. They undermine qualified UK engineers and create delays and extra cost to the project. Crossrail push for women in the in the industry is way overdone. Personally I think women should be and far too intelligent to work under high pressure in dirt and mud. Crossrail lie to young girls and destroy their future by enticing them into the construction industry, Women are gifted and can do better in clean environments like banks and law where they can make at least twice as much.
