      Shame shame shame - Senior Administrative CDM Smith Employee Review

      Pros

      Many pros years ago. None to think of now. Employee loyalty destroyed by poor performing managers looking for scapegoats. Clicks still run the place while true talent is lost in the BS.

      Cons

      Laying off people at or near retirement age without enough retirement savings to survive? What is wrong with you? That behavior never happened in the old days when people actually enjoyed working there.

      Pros

      Great place to work. Flexibility, work from home options available. Tons of opportunities across multiple disciplines. Work life balance is great. The people are awesome.

      Cons

      Pay is unfortunately on the really low end of the industry. A lot of turnover because people leave in order to get a better salary due to the low pay. I also don’t like that your manager (RTL) is also a manager for 20-30 people, and you are all under one large group instead of various teams. The matrix system is a bit odd to me.
