Pros

Working Environment is pleasant. IT Department is top notch. Salary is average to good.

Cons

Stressful Environment. It is either way to busy or not enough work. If there is even a hint of a slight slowdown, layoffs are possible. Tremendous competition among managers for staff talent as well as projects. In the past have competed with people in my own office for external work. Very much a "cut throat" environment for middle and upper management. Younger engineers will have a good experience and learn a lot if they are willing to work hard. Unfortunately many good young engineers leave the company when they approach management level because there are no opportunities.

Pros

When times are good VHB gets its fair share of large , complex projects. Many clients will go to VHB as staffing levels during these times allows VHB to get things done

Cons

Major downside are when things slow down there is NO! company loyalty and many heads roll. During this past downturn people have been laid off that have been with the firm many years ( 20or more ) associates, principals, i.e shaeholders have been laid off. This in my opinion does not reflect what a "generational" company should be all about.
