Decent company, but several complaints

Staff professional

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good people, and had great communication during the hiring process.

Cons

Unorganized project management at times; no annual bonuses (the bonus program they do possess is very small, if you get a bonus at all); and 401k match is not very good. Extremely fiscally-skimpy when it comes to per diem budgeting for projects.

Pros

Good people, decent PTO, thats it

Cons

*****warning**** if you are a recent grad and mid level, dont even thinking coming here!. This is the worst consultant firm you can ever be part of. My advice to to go to Aecom, Jacobs, Stantec, or any other firm. This is going to be the death to your career and resume
