Pros

Developed a good friendship with several Coworkers

Cons

This company was less than impressive day one. Corporate and field was incomunicado and disorganized. Personnel was not familiar with their own requirements and constantly argued concerning procedures. Senior management were incompetent for their rolls and focused on themselves and not their responsibilities. The entire organization were in over their heads, do not understand construction and consistently hired personnel not capable, either by experience or knowledge, of conducting their responsibility. Senior management was not concerned with employee’s health or welfare and refused to acknowledge employee complaints or suggestions, often brushing anything of as “you should stay in your lane” when any mention of their neglect of their responsibilities. They allowed other to humiliate them in meetings, developing a lack of faith in their ability. Senior management also allowed a consultant to berate personnel in meetings and expected submissive response, which created an extremely hostile workplace. Most of the staff has been released, has accepted other offers or are currently looking to remove themselves from this unethical company. In 30 years this company was the only to achieved my personal award for the worst level of clear incompetence. Do not recommend to anyone to tarnish your reputation and resume with this firm.

Pros

A wide variety of projects and some level of autonomy when it comes to types of projects you want to work for

Cons

No consideration for employee's talent, feedbacks often just focused on negatives so they can fire you the minute you don't show "yes boss" attitude. They are not doing well revenue wise and newly hired ones are let go first, citing "performance was not good". When you first join, they tell you not to worry about billable hours for the first 3-6 months, especially when the overall consulting work load was low across the board. But then they fire you for the same reason. Some managers are very kind and supportive when they give you feedback, but if you are unlucky, your reporting manager will use that feedback against you and fire you and not say anything positive. Low compensation.
