Pros

Still some good people but less every day.

Cons

Constant churning at the top (on 2nd CEO and went through 4 COOs in 18 months) has resulted in a joke of an executive team that are just hanging on in hopes of being part of the liquidity event. They'll lie, cheat, and steal to stay in DC Capital's good graces and have no idea how to run a successful A/E firm. Constant pressure on utilization, driving down indirect costs to "provide value" to venture capitalist owner. It's so bad that most would rather be acquired by AECOM, Jacobs, Stantec, etc. at this point.
