Pros

The flexible schedule is a huge plus and it is extremely easy to use your time off according to your own interests. There are plenty of opportunities for growth and there is good variety in the types of projects you can work on. Tetra Tech EMI also has a low multiplier which benefits the proposal process.

Cons

Staying billable can be difficult as can finding enough work due to relatively high variability in available work in the consulting world. Tetra Tech also offers less competitive pay and minimal training programs.

Business Outlook

Pros

Mutitude of opportunity if you have the right office manager.

Cons

Politics come into play too easily with no acountability. There is no focus in many of the offices. The company has grown too fast and has ignored the real employee needs part of a successful business resulting in a cut throat environment instead of a team feel. There is no patience for a learning curve especially if you are not in the good ol boys club.
