Pros

Flexibility, sense of ownership in your work, some great people

Cons

The bonus was below industry standard and is formulated per how well the entire company does. This isn’t fair that some of the company that doesn’t do well affects everyone else, especially when we can’t hire enough people to do the work.

Pros

Vacation policy is nice depending on who your manager is. A vast majority of the people I've encountered are a joy to work with.

Cons

Utilization goal gets in the way of actual growth and progress. Project schedules and expectations are often unreasonable. There is a considerable amount of work that is done that knowingly will need to be redone to satisfy clients which will blow project budgets. Situations will present themselves where you catch a design issue that you ultimately will get blamed for not catching earlier.

Pros

Woolpert prioritizes their employees to a level I have never experienced. Our voices are heard, but more importantly they ask. They're very transparent especially the C-Suite. They regularly take the time to ask for our feedback and collaboration when they are changing protocol, or evolving our processes. Every year they make changes to our environment because they listen. Our benefits package is world class and they work very hard to keep our environment free of toxic behavior.

Cons

Training could be a little better, but they are working on that. It has to be tough when there's over 3,000 people spread across five continents.
