Pros

Great culture, inclusive, diverse and flexible working arrangements. Great team leaders and managers.

Cons

Project manager systems are clunky and slow and take you away from doing actual work. Project budgets are developed on Excel spreadsheets which created budgeting errors and when links were broken.

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.
