Pros

Good colleagues, benefits and culture.

Cons

Reporting structure - two managers (site lead/PM and WFH manager). Site Lead/PM always reviews and approves any decision. Site Lead (Especially HB) does not support or stand for the team member, and takes all the credit and hardly any communication. Always treats you as a personal labor and no respect. This Lead always cares and secures himself, and can throw you under the bus at any time. Too much ego with this person, and no filter and can insult anywhere and in front of anyone. One rotten orange is enough to ruin the morale, spirit and confidence of the team, and here the lead is that rotten orange.

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.
