Pros

-some folks outside of projects are cool. Also depends on your business unit and office space -flexibility on hours although OT is often the case

Cons

-If you like the ESOP this could be a plus but for new comers ESOP doesn’t add value. -lack of culture -top heavy (too many PD/VPs) -pigeonholed into select types of projects. Good luck if you want to keep a diverse work portfolio. If you’re good at one thing even though you don’t want to continue that route they will keep you there. -they will move up someone without experience faster than those who have experience -heard they are doing better on pay but when someone with less responsibilities and experience is making more than you it’s not a fun time -lack of communication and understanding from management. They wonder why folks are leaving but don’t make a change -lots of policies and procedure without guidance from management. Said policies and procedures are often forgotten and people do their own thing -training programs aren’t there they throw you into something and see if you sink and if they do have them they are not executed well -you will go far if you’re favored by upper management. If you aren’t good luck getting promotions and career development without having to fight for reasons -if you really look at the reviews the glowing reviews came from Upper management not from employees

Pros

Staff is super nice and friendly, lots of field visits, and learning opportunities. As an intern, I never got bored and felt like I learned a lot about solid waste. Company has a lot of opportunities to grow as an engineer.

Cons

Feast and famine culture like any other consulting job but it compliments nicely with field work.
