Pros

Excellent projects. The company really attempts to recruit high end talent and offer innovative approaches to remediation science and engineering. Can be easy to work in many locations in the US and abroad, and persue professional interests. Company encourages and supports professional development and continuing education and training. Easy to relocate between offices or work from an employee desired home base.

Cons

Like many large concerns, the goals for employee support for family and professional development are often overstated. A rosy picture is subsumed by the bottom line of very high billability requirements.
