Pros

There are a lot of smart people who work there, and the work they do is really interesting. The culture is very collegial. They have a great COO and CEO who have a clear understanding of the company's mission and how to win work.

Cons

Women, specifically in the corporate services departments, are not treated well. Management tends to shun women who want to have families. They also have policies that are not family-friendly and have cut PTO for everyone below the Director level. Management does not practice what they preach. They told staff that everyone was getting cuts when director and above stayed the same with at least 4 weeks of PTO. They are so bottom-line focused that they can't see the forest for the trees. They don't value hard work as much as they value the loudest voice in the room. They are more interested in the number of people/dollars they can cut than how they can make people more efficient at what they do to produce a higher return.
