      Review

      Water resources engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Interesting projects - Flexibility of letting people work mostly from home (everyone has their own schedule) - Culture is friendly and welcoming - Mentorship program and CDM U training opportunities are outstanding - Opportunities to grow into several roles, including PM, technical lead, or other business roles

      Cons

      - Salary is below average for the industry. Some lower level staff (levels 1-2) are making more than levels 3+ due to inflation, yet salaries aren’t adjusted for the higher level staff. - Salary increases are extremely low. Even if your performance is high your raise will be pretty small. It’s upsetting because many people leave solely for this reason. - Your supervisor will be the supervisor of many people, and you all won’t necessarily be in the same team or working with your supervisor often, so it’s hard to get ahold of your supervisor in general
