Pros

Hand full of smart people to learn from if you're newer to the industry or field (but most left in 2015-2016)

Cons

Lot of politics. The best talent and people have left within the last two years. Was such an inspiring place to work before then.

Pros

Great team culture, supportive colleagues, and opportunities to learn and grow. I gained valuable experience across project coordination, operations, and reporting.

Cons

PTO and sick time are combined into a single accrual bank, which may not align with every employee’s preferences. Benefits are generally competitive, though the 401(k) match could be stronger.

Pros

With over 30 years in the engineering industry, I can say without hesitation that this is the most employee-attentive firm I have ever had the privilege of working for. What sets this organization apart is its commitment to staying at the forefront of the industry — not just technologically, but in how it values and invests in its people. The collective expertise of thousands of dedicated professionals here doesn't just benefit the company; it makes a meaningful impact on the world, and that sense of purpose has genuinely reignited my passion for engineering. The opportunities for growth are both vast and real. Across the firm's many initiatives, there is something for everyone who comes to work curious, motivated, and eager to contribute. This is not a place where ambition goes unnoticed. After more than three decades in this field, I have found a place I am proud to be part of — and one I hope to remain a part of for many years to come. If you are considering joining this team, I wholeheartedly encourage you to take that step.

Cons

If I have to mention a con, it would be monetary compensation, but who doesn't want more money. I took a paycut to join this firm and the amount of time I am investing, could be worth more than my current salary warrants.
