Pros

Fun positive place to work. Lots of engineers in our various offices to share with, so there is plenty of assistance and collaboration as needed challenging projects.

Cons

We still have to fill our our time on each project...goes with the industry.

Glad to hear it is working! We will keep on keeping on. Yes, tracking our time is sort of a pain, but you are right, it is part of the business we are in. Thanks for the feedback. Dave Ruff - CEO/President

Pros

Doing everything right when compared to other A/E firms. Forward thinking without forgetting the lessons learned. Living the lessons learned while still forging new paths.

Cons

Sometimes, when you're on the "bleeding" edge, you get a cut. The key is to heal without losing the lesson.

I like your analogy about the bleeding edge. We try to balance our entrepreneurial spirit and autonomous culture by staying on the leading edge and avoiding the bleeding edge. Less cuts generally, but sometimes we might reach out a little too far. I hear you loud and clear about not losing the lessons. Even as we have transitioned from our founder, Dave Coffman, we have purposefully maintained his influence in our company to capture as many of those lessons learned from the past. Nothings worse than relearning the same lesson. It has always been a goal of mine to not have history repeat itself (at least in my life - business and personal). Unfortunately it seems inevitable in broader society. Thank you for your insight. Dave Ruff - CEO/President

Do you have any minor negatives :) Management is committed to continuing to do a great job. If you see us doing something that is missing the mark, would you please commit to calling me personally? We all have to work together to hang on to this. Thanks for the review. Dave Ruff - CEO/President
