Pros

MM is flexible and accommodating. I initially joined other team and transferred to the other team. HR and senior managers were very encouraging and accommodating with my request. MM is very large organisation so you will encounter lots of opportunities. If you were a go and getter, it will be good for you. MM also support international transfer. I've seen many staff moving globally. You will work some of large projects nationally and internationally. It is a norm to have telecons internationally.

Cons

As many large organisation, MM is not quite integrated as it should be. Each business units work very independently which makes it really hard to understand about the organisation. Although they are planning to integrate global business unit more closely, MM needs to work on the integration more.

Pros

Niche software dev BU followed through with employment offer after 6 month contract-to-hire period. Provided me FMLA and even additional 2 weeks paid maternity leave without any legal obligation. Hybrid remote/office-based strategy supported work-life balance. Employee-ownership of company strengthened team mentality. Improved my resource management skills, built network via enterprise training sessions, increased GIS and agile methodology domain knowledge, and learned interesting facts about sustainability and construction engineering environmental design dependencies. Also, I felt heard and valued after my project risk reporting was addressed by leadership and a major issue avoided.

Cons

My labor cost became commercially restrictive after leadership changes at a strategic client. I was impacted during an Oct. Reduction in Force post a re-org.
