Pros

CDM Smith is one of the few companies that hires 0 experience for entry positions. As a matrix organization, you have access to folks across the entire company and are able to find projects to work on that suit your interests.

Cons

Not a lot of direct supervision/management- as an entry employee this can make it difficult to succeed.
