Pros

CDM Smith allows you to work remotely on a fairly consistent basis. Behind the times with their software but are working to solve that problem over the next 1-2 years.

Cons

CDM does not keep up with market salary rates for employees. It is for this reason that I am currently seeking employment elsewhere. They also don't provide bonuses and have an overly complicated and time consuming performance review process.

False Promises, No Leadership, Disorganized

Pros

Sadly, I can not think of any

Cons

Seems as though they will promise you anything to get you to accept the offer even when they do not plan to follow-through on any of them no accountability among senior management very little (if any) communication between divisions and management and junior staff project managers seem to hog all of the billable work that comes out of their projects leadership seems to only care about making the numbers for the bonus - at any cost
