Pros

Pay matches similar jobs, benefits are strong.

Cons

Corporate culture is very old-fashioned, your bonuses and promotions depend on who you know and have made friends with, and the people around you may or may not do any work but be paid similarly or better than you. Management is so poor at Sargent & Lundy that nothing runs correctly, communication is worse than average, and there are always fingers being pointed at folks lower on the totem pole to make up for mistakes and errors at the management level. Ultimately this is a very hostile work environment and I couldn't express more clearly that your time would be better spent elsewhere.

Pros

Decent pay and interesting projects that allow for good professional development.

Cons

Absolutely horrendous work-life balance. I have been at the company for almost 20 years and their lack of support and flexibility for parents is incredibly disappointing. Going to the office requirements are unrealistic with little kids, and some of the newly minted managers are on a power trip, micromanaging high performers and quoting pto policies if you need to run 30min errands midday.
