Pros

Good pay and benefits are offered

Cons

Owned by private equity firm that drives growth above all else, so everything is focused on revenue. Lots of middle management that care about numbers without a focus on technical project success or individual career advancement. Internal coordination is a nightmare and the AutoCAD/Revit "standards" are painful. Everything is tracked and middle management constantly put pressure on designers about budget revenue. Budgets are always tight and you need to defend every dollar.
