Pros

Many of the people were fantastic to work with & are still friends of mine. Often there was a great team spirit that made it fun to work there. Initially the organization was happy to help people learn and grow. Relationships with clients and within the organization were important.

Cons

It became a highly competitive, dog eat dog culture that was very hostile. Over time it became more important to 'win' with the clients or over your co-workers. Too many of the senior managers were seemingly rewarded for belittling, berating and bullying subcontractors, clients and employees. Many of the good folks left.

Pros

Nothing that I can think of

Cons

The working conditions on the HART project are extremely unhealthy and feel deliberately unsustainable. Long and exhausting days—often exceeding 11 hours—are treated as standard, and Saturday work is expected without question. There are no true holidays, only two floating days for the entire year, making work‑life balance nearly impossible. Leadership is disorganized, unresponsive, and difficult to work with. Instead of providing guidance, new employees are left to navigate everything on their own. When questions arise, the default response is to “search the cloud” or “read the plans,” even when the information is outdated, incomplete, or nearly impossible to locate. This creates a culture where employees are set up to fail from the start. Work is assigned with urgency, yet reviews are delayed for days or even weeks. After completing tasks without timely feedback, employees often receive pages of comments requiring major revisions—revisions that could have been avoided had leadership reviewed the work earlier or answered questions when asked. This cycle repeats constantly and erodes morale. Engineers are expected to use AutoCAD, but the computers provided cannot run the software effectively, resulting in frequent delays and unnecessary frustration. The offboarding process is equally unprofessional. Even when employees submit a proper two‑week notice, management may instruct them to leave earlier than their stated end date. Accrued PTO and sick leave are not paid out or handled transparently, leaving departing employees feeling dismissed and disrespected. Overall, the environment is stressful, chaotic, and deeply discouraging. Employees are treated as replaceable rather than valued. Anyone considering this project should be fully aware of how damaging the experience can be.
