Pros

Friendly office of young professionals, flexible work schedules, upper management that is supportive and encouraging. Good teamwork mentality, folks don't hesitate to pitch in when you ask for help.

Cons

Some of the reviews dating back to 2012 reflect a very different time and way of thinking. Unfortunately, we are still trying to rectify some of the management decisions made historically that did not serve us or our clients well.

Opportunities for growth... Employee owned and collaborative culture

Business Outlook

Pros

I've been here over 15 years - from before acquisition by Kleinfelder. I've stayed for the talented and supportive colleagues, the long term client partnerships and opportunity for advancement. I like how the company is big enough to compete with the big firms but small enough to care about employees and clients

Cons

We are running somewhat lean with big opportunities hitting and need to hire more people faster.
