Pros

Good people to work with. At lease my immediate team was. Mostly all the senior management have an open door policy. Opportunity to grow and transfer between departments.

Cons

Very cut-throat when it comes to bottom line. They dont really care for employees...its just a lip service when they say "People are our greatest asset"

Pros

Decent culture, individual contributors are fine, management is lacking

Cons

The company operates like many smaller companies depending on which business market you are in so your experience will vary. For some, it's the best company, others will say it's the worst; it just depends on your region/group even at the local level. Water/wastewater is a good market in most offices, transportation is hit an miss depending on location.
