Pros

Incredibly professional and polite group of people.

Cons

A little slow and quite boring at times. When I first started I'd get large amounts of work handed down to me Friday afternoon without any planning ahead of time and would get stuck in the office until 8pm on a regular basis. I found this to be incredibly rude and unorganized. However, I had a new manager come in and he fixed it.

Pros

Decent culture, individual contributors are fine, management is lacking

Cons

The company operates like many smaller companies depending on which business market you are in so your experience will vary. For some, it's the best company, others will say it's the worst; it just depends on your region/group even at the local level. Water/wastewater is a good market in most offices, transportation is hit an miss depending on location.
