Pros

Good culture, large company allows multiple offices to come together to work an extremely large and complex projects. Talant can be drawn company wide to achieve top-notch product delivery.The sharing of work between offices helps to deal with the ebb and tide of wolkload. Good corporate standards create a consistency across the company. The mannagement seems to be prettty open, honest and transparent.

Cons

As can be expected, there is less flexibilty due to large corporate standardization. Projects are often taken away from smaller offices to feed the larger ones.

Pros

I can get involved with different economic projects within HDR Decision Economics. The work topic covers economic analysis on transportation/construction projects, regulatory impact analysis, cost escalation anlaysis and others. People get to use their economics skills in a wide variety of topics and this is a good environment to learn.

Cons

Don't get to travel and meet clients personally as economists lower than senior level. I think it will be great for mid-level economists to have more exposure to interacting with clients.
