Pros

Work life balance is fair. Good amount of vacation. Most are paid hourly, so if you work over 40hrs/wk you are paid for it. Many of the company issues have simple solutions.

Cons

Got bought out by NV5 ~3 yrs ago. Very corporate feel. No 401K match. No bonus. Lot of lies and deception from corporate and management. Little innovation. High turnover rate. Bad culture.

Pros

The office staff cares about employees, the staff is very caring about eachother, lots of after-work activities, good and honest work, managers are attentive to needs, and there are plenty of opportunities to move up the ladder.

Cons

Sometimes I'd rather be at work than at home.

Pros

Work from home freedom Boss is very communicative

Cons

They rely on ghost writing too much instead of having the inspectors write their own reports. They hire very very poor subcontractors to do inspections that give very bad info and take poor photos. No breaks from one report to the other. The report review also needs help... lots of errors in prior reports. Constantly overloaded fixing everyone's mistakes. Lazy coworkers. Lots of late late nights working.
