Pros

Office Management and employee are supportive and great people to work alongside. Very good competitive benefit package.

Cons

Corporate layoff policy is a huge negative. Corporate is a hypocrite considering when you're hired they request that you submit a two (2) week employment resignation notice, however, when company needs to layoff employees its policy is to cut you loose on the spot and the severance package is a JOKE. Corporate's layoff policy is inconsiderate of its employees. I would have given HDR 5 stars but the aforementioned is a HUGE negative with employees.

Pros

Healthcare Design, EST practice groups, employee-owned, diverse knowledge base, warm people eager to collaborate! Highly collaborative culture as opposed to being contentious. Passionate about design excellence in our practice areas.

Cons

Conservative mindsets with Midwest roots. Lack of priority on applied research. Priority on maintaining robust BIM content libraries- although many of these are shifting fast as we speak.

Pros

Some excellent managers, good benefits, improved emphasis on mentor ship while I was there, and always work to be done. Overall excellent office moral.

Cons

Depending on the job, work-life balance was an issue for several employees. Slow to listen to and accept new ideas/methods.
