Pros

Good clients, big projects, different offices located throughout the country. Ability to add extra resources when needed to ramp up for increased work.

Cons

Constant employee turnover in Project Controls of large transportation project. Management created a toxic work environment, and despite multiple people complaining to HR, problem was ignored. Very unprofessional environment where intimidation, yelling and screaming at junior people occurred frequently for no reason. Despite numerous issues raised, issues were ignored and went uncorrected by senior leaders.

Pros

Decent culture, individual contributors are fine, management is lacking

Cons

The company operates like many smaller companies depending on which business market you are in so your experience will vary. For some, it's the best company, others will say it's the worst; it just depends on your region/group even at the local level. Water/wastewater is a good market in most offices, transportation is hit an miss depending on location.
