Pros

CHA has changed considerably as a company, but at the core, it still cares deeply about its clients and employees.

Cons

Like many other industries, the engineering consulting industry is consolidating with a heavy emphasis on mergers and acquisitions. While this is important for the long-run, it can create short-term distractions that impacts client service and deliverables.
