Pros

LJA really cares about quality work and bringing in work. If you want to get into Land Development, LJA is definitely a great option for you.

Cons

They generally expect you to work more than 40 hours a week regardless if you are in a position that pays you for overtime or not. It varies by group, but I know people who have left because they want a better work life balance and other companies can provide that. Additionally, some managers feel it is necessary to bring in work even if it isn't going to be profitable just because it is available. More carefully choosing which projects are worked on would reduce stress levels and reduce the number of overtime hours expected.
