Pros

The DC group is definitely on the up. Recent hires have been plentiful but very beneficial to the momentum of the office. Projects are interesting and challenging. Great use of incorporating technology and modern building techniques. Work life balance is very fair so far. They really do value employees, safety and their strong morals.

Cons

Big corporation, so red tape, politics, etc. come with the territory. Foreign owned- Take that as you will, but the Europeans are definitely ahead of us in many ways and it helps to have this tie to the business on an international scale. Lots of new hires from engineers up through management.

Pros

Excellent benefits, excellent environment for supporting career development, nice people, salary very good.

Cons

LONG hours are expected - plan to work at least 55+ hours per week if you are salary. Very gossipy and clique-ish under the surface that seems to heavily influence promotion and advancement. Too much bureaucracy.
