Pros

Pros are you get decent benefits for such a large company, and the employees are easy to work with and for. (Not Managers or Regional Coordinators) If you are lucky to get the bonus for staying put after being acquired then beware of the end result. I got 1/3 what we were promised.

Cons

Being a public company the job is profit driven. Lots of turnover and layoffs each quarter when earnings come out. Growth by acquisition yet once your purchased you are forgotten. If you got in on the upswing 10 years ago then you are rewarded, after that your just a number.

Pros

They have standard benefits. They don't make any significant changes for at least the first year or two.

Cons

Be prepared for your firm to be flipped upside down a year after the acquisition. You will find yourself updating your resume because you can see it coming. Your administrative and accounting positions become redundant. They will lay off people, departments, and close offices that aren't necessary. You will be a slave to your time sheet and utilization rate. Stock up on good-bye cards....you'll need them.

Pros

Different types of civil engineering projects. You will always have something to do and apply your knowledge and experiencie. A lot of support from other offices throughout the organization.

Cons

The company insurance is not very good. The wellness program is very difficult to follow to get the incentives. A huge organization with many layers of upper management and rules.
