Pros

Not many, the projects are all industriual warehouses for the most part and regular office interiors. Very rare to have projects with high level of design. The California offices may have better project types, the east coast offices do not.

Cons

Average vacation, not many official holidays are paid. Went on jury duty, had to use my own personal time/vacation to cover it. Not a lot of support staff, and the few support staff is very inexperienced. Another person noted they get rid of experienced people leaving younger inexperienced staff.

Business Outlook

Pros

Great work of the administrative staff and few really great supportive people in the team. Good health insurance, office space, and convenient parking. A lot of projects and need for staff. Frequent lunch and learns with free junk food. Some nice initiatives from the CA management.

Cons

No BIM education. Projects are primarily warehouses. Salaries are average for the market. Heavy workload with 50hrs work week. Management seems to be very biased and unconfident and therefore no promotions for some talented employees and super insincere relations within the team. Best workers tend to leave but some incompetent fellows hold their positions by flattering the management.

Pros

They order a lot of food - nice co-workers

Cons

Management over the accounting department is really horrible! I use the word "management" quite loosely! Most of the accounting department has quit one-by-one because of this poor management. Upper management obviously doesn't care. Two thumbs down to this company for their lack of care and leadership with the accounting team!
