Pros

-Variety of project materials (wood, steel, masonry, concrete) -Variety of project types: retrofit existing buildings, new design, analysis, etc... -In general you will get exposed to all the stages of a project: schematic design, construction documents, etc... -Perform construction administration (CA) -Young office -You do pretty much everything (calculation packages, draw and send your details to the drafter), CA -You get a variety of experiences fast

Cons

-Office has a very high turnover rate, people continue to leave which is why the office is so young -Office is not profitable -No dental insurance -No vision insurance -You do get a HSA stipend but it still does not make up for it -Bonuses are poor compared to competing firms -Salary is poor compared to competing firms -No project reviews- no one really looks at your work -Performance reviews are nonexistent, you have to ask for a review and even if you get one, it's you reviewing yourself (your manager doesn't know what you did) or your manager just never gives you one or postpones it inevitably -No raise or bonus for getting your P.E. license -Drafting department is poor -No mentorship -Office is deeply segregated into pods (bunch of different teams) -Poor management -Some engineering decisions on projects are questionable -Lack of professionalism
