Pros

Great benefits, only pay $48 a month towards health insurance, fantastic 401K, HSA contribution, good safety records

Cons

-Company's safety policy obviously was not addressed with field workers, so many safety policies and paperwork that it actually makes jobs more unsafe -Upper management outdated with technology, many principals/shareholders refuse to innovate with technology that is crucial to future success -Many upper management unfamiliar with field work, went directly into management -Bonus system is terrible and raises are nil, below standards for industry, expected to work tons of overtime for free -Expectations for billability are extremely unrealistic, and the emphasis put on billable hours are to the point of unethical. Management bills whatever time they want, and often milks time that is unnecessary due to poor innovation and communication with project staff -Essentially no guidance for junior staff, you are thrown into the fire and expected to figure it out on your own. When something goes wrong on a job, junior staff is thrown under the bus so management can pat themselves on the back
