Pros

-used to be EBA, had a great reputation in the industry and excellent family friendly feel (work/life balance; understanding of family emergency; etc) -currently has management that is quite understanding of personal emergency (provided clear communication & updates) -encourages professional development (internal/online training), particularly in down time -encourages internal research & development projects (eligible for tax deduction)

Cons

-since transitioning entirely to Tt there has a been a significant change in the office dynamic; many people let go & rehired on contract; a real sense that the people here are now just numbers to the greater (American) corporation -no raises; bonuses; encouragement from greater corporate - this has lead to an exodus of many intermediate and senior people (in addition to those laid off) and an over arching feeling of dread in the office

Toxic environment, leaders who do not care

Pros

some learning experiences and opportunities to connect with peers

Cons

An overworked, underpaid team that is expected to work until 2 or 3 am sometimes (this is in Arlington, VA) without little to no appreciation from upper management. Boy's club mentality- not much room for women in management conversations from what i saw/experienced An environment where staff are in fear of their jobs. Constant gossip from all levels with a lack of transparency from upper level management. Awful benefits, limited vacation hours and no separate sick leave. Not much room for internal professional growth.

Entrepreneurial Culture and Walks the Talk

Pros

Very flexible business acumen for most part. I see critical reviews below, but my experience has been the company is very supportive of its employees, provides an entrepreneurial culture which starts in the corporate offices down to most local offices. Compensation is driven by performance, not favoritism like some companies. If you are entrepreneurial and good at execution you can be very successful at Tetra Tech. It also respects people who want the 9-5 job, but compensation will reflect that.

Cons

if you have trouble in a fast paced entrepreneurial culture and like structure and the 9-5 M thru F job, this may not be the place for you.
