Pros

Revamp your infrastructure in order to continue doing business in the U.S., and to thrive in today's economy. Change is always good and this company warrants it.

Cons

The firm needs to re-evaluate itself and start with a new management team inclusive of its business support teams. The entire infrastructure lacks knowledge and experience.

Pros

Projects are amazing, PTO is more than most firms and health care benefits are good. Social events every month. Nice people from partner to graduates. Engineers out of college can learn a lot there.

Cons

Overtime isn't shared fairly around the office. Some people don't have work life balance and some do, depends on what team you are on. They don't want to grow, which seems strange and limits opportunities. And it helps to be British.
