      Pros

      - There is a great knowledge base to draw from - company experts are top notch. - Diverse clientele / projects - while working in the delivery division, one is exposed to industrial, federal, and state government projects. - There is good support from resource management for professional development and personal needs.

      Cons

      As a scientist, I sometimes feel marginalized - internal communications often focus on engineers and rarely mention the achievements of scientific staff. There also seems to be a disconnect between headquarters and the rest of the company (business cards without job titles for staff regularly working in the field - come on!).

      Toxic Environment

      Pros

      Salary, Leaves, Team Outing, that's all

      Cons

      I am not talking about the whole CDM Smith; CDM Smith, in general, is a very good company. I am talking about the GDO Data Scientist team. The team environment is toxic because of two stupid people. Because of them, no one wants to stay on the team. Everyone leaves after a certain point. They just support each other and do not let a third person grow just because they are good friends or whatever they are. They are the worst people I have met in my life. Only those two can survive together because both of them are toxic.
