Pros

- Nice and passionate people - Interesting subject material - Good office location

Cons

- bad management - 401K match paid out as a 3 year cliff vest in stock (should be illegal) - limited bonus and pay increases - when our company was bought by NV5 is when it all started to go down hill. - they are a company that gobbles up other companies to juice their own valuation and has the worst integration execution imaginable

Pros

Some amazing people. Good teams to work with.

Cons

The FTO policy is terrible. It practically illegally stripped people on federal contracts of weeks of PTO they had earned. The lower management then put weird policies in place that were not backed up by any real contractual agreements and especially without any agreement from employees who had been there for years. HR went from amazing in the smaller company to abysmal especially by trying to actively not produce any guidance on benefits to try to keep employees in the dark on how much they were loosing. In addition to lost PTO they also stripped out the retirement benefits we had before. I know there are some good people in management but I truly don’t know if they are aware how badly people on the ground interacting with their customers are being treated.
