Pros

The hiring process was very quick and easy. The team lead in my organization is good at keeping us all up-to-date with company happenings, contract awards, etc. I like that you don't have to get a company credit card to travel, because who really wants another credit card to manage?

Cons

The way travel is handled is antiquated and time consuming. The system for timekeeping is constantly down and you get e-mails stating you're delinquent in recording your time when the system is down.

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.
