Pros

I liked the overall culture. The company philosophy is very much about work/life balance. From top management on down you'll find that folks support a balanced approach. As a consulting engineering firm they do good work, care about their clients and work to ensure quality engineering is delivered. The company delegates project related decision making as far down as possible, which empowers engineers and PM's to make the right decisions for clients.

Cons

Pay structure for the consulting business is on the lower end of the spectrum in my experience. I wasn't dissatisfied with my own pay, but when hiring new employees with hard to find skill sets it could be a challenge. Company is very busy which is a pro, con to that is finding new work can be frustrating as finding internal resources to perform the work is a challenge.

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.
