Pros

Marketing machine good at messaging campaigns National technical expertise Networking great (H ave D rinks R eady) High female to male ratio

Cons

Glass ceiling for technical design engineers, suffocating environment PM's earn large salaries on the backs of technical design engineers that earn far less, Female to male salary ratio is low (based on labor/fee proposals), Dollars spent on overhead cannot be sustained long term, HDR labels a person through a personality test from day one, Senior male managers text each other to stay under the radar.

Pros

Good company to work for, has treated me fairly and given me opportunity to advance for many years.

Cons

Working as a real estate person for an engineering firm can be taxing at times because we cost ourselves out of a lot of beneficial work that smaller firms are winning.
