As with any job, it's not about the company as much as it is about who your direct supervisor is - Geotechnical Engineer EXP Employee Review

Pros

The corporate structure was well set up, defined and transparent. As with any large company, there are hurdles from a bureaucratic standpoint, but they are well thought through. There were many great managers but also many subpar managers. This is the case anywhere. They key is to work with a great manager and a close-knit team which would make the work not only more productive, but more enjoyable as well.

Cons

When proposals are put out touting the breadth of experience across the company and how many people and offices collaborate, my experience was that each office does their own thing, and it's hard to actually get people who are not a part of your office to get invested in your project.

Pros

Direct managers within the office are nice people. Colleagues are also nice. Opportunity for career growth if you stick around long enough. Some interesting projects.

Cons

*USA offices * Decision-makers at the top of the chain get to have the benefits of remote work (employees remotely work-sharing across offices) but do not allow employees to do the same (if you’re working with a completely remote team you must still come into the office). Despite having proven through the COVID-era that employees can successfully work remotely senior leadership is planning a full return to office 5 days/wk. Lousy healthcare benefits, below-avg compensation. Employees with less than 40 hrs/wk of project work are forced to create technical documents to justify charging to company time when the root cause is the firm not winning projects.
