Pros

Battelle has been a great company to work for. Their work covers diverse industries....benefits are some of the best around (including a pension plan)....HQ Offices (Admin, HR, Accounting, Travel, etc) are actually friendly and helpful....and they match up to $10,000 per employee for charitable contributions....

Cons

Career opportunities are quite limited if you are not a Research Scientist...

Pros

Get to travel to places I never would've been if I had to pay the bill. Food per Diem is a definate Pro... I like to eat.

Cons

Leadership opportunities are lacking. Do not get full government per diem on trips; only get reimbursed for what was spent. PTO is slow to accrue.

Pros

Decent benefits in regard to health and 401k. Compensation was fair for the industry.

Cons

Limited opportunities for advancement; employees became burned out due to poor work/personal life balance. Upper management is top heavy and constant restructuring was frustrating. Managers had questionable ethics and were constantly undermining employees for personal gain. Overall, it was a poor experience. Much prefer URS and Bechtel.
