Pros

Large company Large and exciting project Lots of things to learn and people to learn from

Cons

Far below average salary compared to statistics from working union. The company can get too set in their own ways, i.e. software usage, management etc. Overall not that innovative, which probably is just the nature of civil engineering as an industry.
