Pros

One of the best reasons to work for HNTB is the compensation and benefits package. Both are very competitive and often exceed competitors. The employee stock ownership program is also another great reason. Monetary reasons aside, the company is very focused on letting you decide where and how far you want to take your career. Workload is heavy throughout the entire company, and the chance to work on a wide variety of some interesting, some not so interesting, projects exists.

Cons

Work/life balance is often a negative attribute. Its either feast or famine, sometimes, working 70 hour weeks is not enough, while at other times, it is a struggle to get 40 in. Changes in upper management has brought in some new faces, and I am still undecided if the company made wise decisions in the promotion and hiring process.

Pros

The people who work at HNTB are, for the most part, really bright, full of energy, and interested in having fun at work. This is the most fun place I've ever worked. People are genuinely friendly to one another and interested in helping one another. For the most part, management is committed to helping employees succeed. The company supports monthly fun events for employees.

Cons

There is some competition or lack of cooperation between different divisions. Management is resistant to change. Focus on metrics and short-term performance that skews decision-making. Some decisions are penny wise but pound foolish, may save costs this quarter but will be much more costly in the long run.

Pros

Some good projects, co-workers, some long standing trusting relationships with clients.

Cons

Constant turnover, no concern for work/life balance. Good ole boy network. Quick to layoff when TOJ drops by .01%.
