Pros

This company has been amazing to work for. The culture is great. They let you work remote/hybrid/in-office in any combination you want. The compensation is competitive. The benefits are the best I've ever had.

Cons

The company was recently acquired by a much larger engineering firm. All the pros I listed are evaporating. The incoming company promised everyone had a place in the new company. They've started doing rounds of layoffs already with no severance package. The benefits with the new company are significantly worse and much more expensive. We aren't receiving compensation to help offset the increased costs even though we were promised we wouldn't lose any compensation or benefits. Prior to the acquisition, this would've been a 5-start review with almost no cons.

Pros

Was a genuinely great place to work. Great people and great culture. It was worth the slightly-lower-than-average pay because work life balance and benefits were great. I enjoyed going to work every day.

Cons

Poor financial decisions from upper management regarding the shareholder program led to the company's demise. Upper management sold out to WSP. Management made millions while long time employees got zilch. As someone else had mentioned, retention bonuses were unfairly distributed. Most people didn't get any retention bonus even if they had been long time employees of the company. It really felt like everyone who wasn't upper management got stabbed in the back. They got their payout then dumped the company. Still stings to this day.
