Pros

Good working enviorment, good people, Smart buisness plan. The company tries to be transparent with its emloyees about the direction its heading.

Cons

Large Company makes it feel like you can get lost in the company. I think the management tries to fix this issue, but I dont think you can remove the big company feel completely.

Pros

Employee ownership created an environment in which nearly all staff felt they were owners even if they did not elect to participate in the ESOP

Cons

Fields of work were very "stove piped" with little or no movement across specialty areas to create hybrid capabilities and stronger teams.

Pros

The company has an excellent culture that promotes work-life balance in my experience. The emphasis is always on the quality of work we do. I have been challenged by the diversity of transportation planning projects and the knowledge I have gained being involved. My growth in the position has been slow but steady, and I have had some good internal training opportunities. Communication by corporate management is generally good, and I have faith in the competence and decision making skills of the corporate managers. The compensation package is comparable to other A/E firms.

Cons

Promotion opportunities have been limited. I have had limited opportunities for company sponsored attendance to professional trade associations, groups or external training. Our department has been slow to hire for key senior positions that need to be filled. I've had no obvious mentor during my time at HDR nor has anyone proposed it.
