Pros

There are a lot of opportunities for a young engineer. Being such a large company, engineers are able to work on multiple types of projects and with any different project managers.

Cons

They are too big and do not have a clear focus. Buzz words are used to describe the vision of the company. Not convincing.

Pros

-Early exposure and responsibility on large scale projects -Young office with good gender balance, a softball team, and the occasional happy hour -Plenty of PE's to get recommendations from for those looking for qualifying experience to take the PE exam -Plenty of PTO (less for new hires) -Good engineers to learn from, although more personal initiative is required to capitalize on this.

Cons

-Increasingly restrictive work environment -Production focused, little effort to involve lower level engineers on initial design decisions -Half measures to increase employee satisfaction like an employee committee and ping pong table, while stripping benefits, reducing review and raise frequency, and limiting decision making power of the local office. -Mass exodus of experienced and innovative upper management since Flack + Kurtz was acquired by WSP Group
