Pros

Great culture, global footprint, technology-focused AEG firm that cares about the employees. Geospatial is at the core of the business, but there is also a big focus on engineering and architecture design. From designing airport and cruise terminals to data centers, creating digital twins of countries to precision monitoring, BIM to bathymetry; Woolpert brings unique capabilities to our clients and provides numerous opportunities to staff. This is the only PE backed firm that I am aware of that enables company ownership through the Principal program for employees at any stage in their career.

Cons

Bonus structure is tailored towards giving all employees an opportunity to receive a bonus based on their performance and the company's performance. Which is a good thing; but only when the bonus pool is large enough to support it.

Pros

Employees are passionate about their work and their customers. Flexibility is really great, the ability to work remotely when so many other companies are forcing people back to the office is a big plus. People are genuinely nice and want to help each other which is not something you find at every company.

Cons

A lot of change, but that is to be expected with how much the company is growing.

Pros

Flexibility, sense of ownership in your work, some great people

Cons

The bonus was below industry standard and is formulated per how well the entire company does. This isn’t fair that some of the company that doesn’t do well affects everyone else, especially when we can’t hire enough people to do the work.
