Pros

Office location. Some people are actually nice and honest.

Cons

Worst management team. They choose the “yes” sayers to develop and promote them. If becoming one of them is your goal you’ll do ok. They also protect harassment - watch over your shoulder. Diversity and inclusion doesn’t mean diversity and inclusion.

Thanks for the feedback. We treat workplace concerns seriously and address them in accordance with our internal policies and procedures. We have multiple channels for reporting issues and we train and encourage our team members to use them. Encouraging everyone to ask questions and provide honest feedback is critical to supporting our culture and our values of integrity, trust and mutual respect. Unfortunately, you did not share your office location so we're unable to forward your review to regional and office leadership.

Pros

Lots of project typologies and programs to learn. The firm will reimburse you for credentials and license exams.

Cons

Too political, upper management does not follow the guidelines they set up themselves for appointing and promoting staff. The firm also rolled back DEI initiatives.
