Cons
Black and Veatch has the same challenges that I am sure many other large companies must continually strive to overcome and sometimes things move slow, or at least not as quickly as one would like. B&V has made progress, but needs to keep striving to push decision making lower in the organization to allow us to be more nimble and responsive. Even with a few challenges associated with working in a large organization, the overall benefits of a large organization far exceed any drawbacks. It is a luxury (and huge competitive advantage) to have the resources and experts internally to solve almost any problem that may come up on a project.
