Pros

Professional environment; good benefits; advancement potential.

Cons

Corporate consolidation (reporting to US HQ) dilutes local business unit autonomy and agility in responding to business needs; post-acquisition integration is too slow; poor communication from local leadership; IT requests always require multiple follow-ups to closure; corporate QA leadership manages by command and control, lacks listening and teamwork acumen; low morale; too much C-suite emphasis on social justice issues.

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.
