      limited oppurtunities

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Friendly colleagues - good company social events

      Cons

      Work is exclsuively desk work on CAD (at least in infrastructure Engineering). No oppurtunity to go out to the field or take on more challenging work. If you are a high acheiver than I would say BuroHappold is not for you.

      lots of talking, weak or no actions - no good perspectives or chances of development for young engineers

      Mechanical engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      international atmosphere, employees get along very well, interesting projects (on the surface)

      Cons

      - no sustainable design at all - management does not know who to treat people, social intercourse of the management is terrible, they talk a lot (one could say they like hearing themselves talking) but no actions, unfortunatelly the tone sometimes is absolutely inappropriate - no appreciation - most people are totally underpaid (of course we talk about that, although you try to prevent that. Why do you do anyways..?!) - office space is a mess (they prefer to spend as little money as possible on the rent. Defective furniture and fixtures) - management does not "lead" or "conduct" the people, they prefer to "rule".. and they are incorrigible - problems are not tried to be solved - managment prefers to whitewash and sit them out - stop making up stories why people supposedly leave the company - by the end of the day it has been always the same reasons in the past 2-3 years.
