Pros

Many opportunities to work on state and local jobs. No micromanaging...

Cons

...No management whatsoever. Weak project management team. Many employees say negative things about the owner and cower in fear of him. Antiquated and extremely unorthodox way of using AutoCAD and weak knowledge of how to use Revit. No room to grow. Don't plan to take a vacation unless it's over a year in advance. "Don't do the riser diagram - I'm not going to tell you again!" <5 minutes later> "Where's my riser diagram?!" Many copy and paste jobs to be completed in a work week. They can't keep a registered PE on board to save their lives. In my one year there, they hired 5 people, and 6 people were either fired, quit, or laid-off.

Pros

Lots of flexibility. You are given a lot of freedom - you just need to manage your time wisely and if you do your job, its a very easy place to work. No micro-managing. Many employees have been here over 20 years, and a few have returned after other opportunities arose. A "casual, family-like" environment. Pay is above average and compatible with much larger firms.

Cons

Not a lot of mentoring for very junior employees; but there are always team members accessible and willing to help out.
