Pros

DPR is a great place to work if you are willing to put in some effort. The training opportunities are endless and you are rewarded for doing more than the suggested amount. The culture is laid back and the management tend to stay off your case as long as you are producing positive results.

Cons

Be ready to work a lot of hours during crunch time in the field. Also, the Superintendents tend to be hard on the young engineers, so thick skin is also a plus. Be warned though, that the management may make empty promises at times, and blame is usually directed towards the younger Engineers.
