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.

Pros

It is a highly professional organization that attracts professionals from all walks of life. If you do your work correctly, on-time and as planned then your relations with managers, supervisors and upper level employees goes very smoothly. They reward competence and that is what makes for a wonderful sense of team spirit that pervades the company.

Cons

It all depends on what division or department you are in as to the working environment and the level of job satisfaction. All divisions are not created equal and as such there is the chance that you will fall into a division that treats you less well. When overseas, for example, two different consultants working for COWI can have different supervisors and get a completely different opinion of who is doing what to whom. This lack of consistency could be considered a limitation.
