      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Employee owned Matrix organization allows for promotions vertically and laterally Locations worldwide Opportunities for engineers, planners, scientists Supportive of professional development Competitive salary and benefits

      Cons

      While there are more opportunities available, it is occasionally difficult to get involved in projects you like, because they aren't actually located in your region. Small (but slowly growing) presence in Arizona outside of engineering sector
