Pros

Extensive project list in multiple disciplines with extensive international projects, especially Bridges/Highways. Office culture lacking, at least in our department.

Cons

After 14 years of service I was laid off, it happens to the best of us right? Unfortunately our manager offered no severance, none, nothing. I walked out with my 401K and nothing else. Our department never promoted from within and suffered from fractured. Biased treatment based not on quality of work but who you knew. I loved the history of the firm and the work they did, it is unfortunate that some department leaders can ruin a "good feeling". Look somewhere else, if you have a choice.

Pros

Meets industry compensation. Great office location - close to Trains.

Cons

In my experience, the middle and upper management at HNTB are poor at managing people. The management I worked under didn’t have realistic delivery schedules or expertise; they would continually lie to clients to say that project x was 80% done, when it was really only 30%. That resulted in very stressful milestone deliveries. Managers are slave drivers who don’t want to get their hands dirty.

Pros

Good pay and benefits, that's it.

Cons

Your are only useful if you can make money for the company. Everyone else is disposable. The annual reviews are a joke, no follow up and no training.
