Great 2-yr stepping stone, but not much else.

Pros

Smart and experienced colleagues that are great to learn from as a young engineer. Full services firm so there’s opportunity to work with a lot of different groups (water, transportation, aviation, etc.)

Cons

Poor company support for benefits along with subpar raises. Unwilling to advance younger employees even when its deserved. WAY too top heavy of a company.
