Pros

BuroHappold offers a genuine environment for free thinking. This isn't reserved solely for the Engineering Fraternity, ideas are welcomed whatever your role within the business. Engaging projects for all to relate to. Meaningful work provides a collective sense of pride across the business. An energetic and inspiring CEO provides clear direction. Embraces change.

Cons

Can feel a little unstructured to some but that's how the creativity is nurtured. Won't feel corporate enough for some. Can feel like a lot of change happens at once, but it's how the business remains sufficiently agile.

Flexible work environment was great. They're pretty good on diversity.

Stressful work for sure, but I've heard it varies depending on your location. They do random layoffs.
