Business Outlook
Pros
Larger company still has access to more international and mega-projects and major clients - but usually forced to use cheapest staff so access to opportunities can be limited and very political. Result can be beneficial for junior staff giving exposure but limited support can lead to discouraging failure with no senior backup.
Cons
Cost pressure from highly leveraged acquisition still felt, impacting benefits, training & employee programs as well as endless billability pressure (like all A&E firms but targets pushed higher over the years for same grades). Results in bad morale and mid level employee retention issues.
