Pros

Flexible working, work life balance, provides opportunity to be involved in a diverse range of activities. Good benefits and salary packages.

Cons

Disapppointing within the last 7-9 months with restructuring and communicating change. Sending alot of money by hiring a number of interim staff when we are supposed to be cost cutting. I feel as though the Group board are losing the trust of their shareholders as they are not be kept abreast of the bigger picture.

Pros

Very competitive benefits package. Anachronistic and cordial work environment. Some extremely competent practice leaders and engineering professionals.

Cons

Sr. management in North America is in turmoil after sudden departure of their key leader. Delta reorganization was poorly thought out and wasted untold hours and $$'s. Legacy requirements of multiple subsidiaries and "CMS" reporting system for time and expenses make it extremely difficult to book projects, submit time, do project analysis, much less actually send out bills. . A very non-entreprenuerial atmosphere as one is rarely rewarded for doing something new, better while people are fired for unknown reasons.
