Pros

Offices world wide. Diverse market areas, K-12, airports, medical, environmental, mining and minerals and petrochemical.

Cons

67,000 employees, Major trouble managing their human resources between divisions and regions. Easier to hire new and cheaper employees then hire from within. At the end of your assignment it will be up to you to find your next assignment.
