Pros

There are enough parking spots.

Cons

The culture in this company is as toxic as can be, as long as the "big boys" currently working there don't get kicked out. (referring to the head of departments holding the seats for longer than a year and the project managers blaming everyone but themselves) People have almost started fistfighting because of the plots of these so-called leaders. The salary is poor, there are NO opportunities to grow and there is no transparency in whatsoever. Hard working employees are just being used. Don't even get me started on racism at IV-ONE. Born and raised in the Netherlands but still seeing Duth people getting oppertunities while others get nothing. I'm not even talking about expats, they are actually treated like trash, some have even been bullied away. The projects are always the same, a lot of copy paste stuff, so don't expect to be engineering innovative stuff.

Pros

Good, caring people who work well together. Company once had a positive repetition with client base as a "go to company" when needing technical solutions fast. A-team engineering.

Cons

Company was originally Albert Garaudy & Associates started 1990 out of Metairie, LA (New Orleans). Over the years it thrived on simple principals, treat your employees and clients like family. Employees stayed (up to 20 plus years) and clients continued to call on them for engineering services. They were recognized numerous times as one the best places to work in New Orleans, LA. Company held events (crawfish boils, HH, family picnics, bowling parties, etc). Opened offices in Houston, Mississippi and then Nigeria. Company lost its way once it was acquired by two different Dutch corporations 2007 - 2010 & 2010 - to present. No longer have offices in Mississippi, Nigeria and recently as of March 2017 the Metairie, LA office has sadly closed the doors where it all started 27 years ago. Houston still remains. Only as a shell of it once was.
