Pros

Lots of genuinely good people and knowledge. Good benefits.

Cons

I hope your not in a rush to work here. Turn around time from application to hire date can be MONTHS! If you've seen Horrible Bosses or Office Space... Well. You get the idea. ( Luckily not everywhere within the company, but certainly alot of places within it, so do as much homework as you can! ) Still a fairly conservative / old fashioned work environment.

Pros

Strong mission, good work-life balance, good coworkers, good GIS tools, good training opportunities, safety-minded culture.

Cons

Inexperienced upper management fold to wholesale rate payers who will never be content. Budget constraints prevent necessary travel. High turnover office with limited promotion potential.
