Pros

If you are coming straight out of school, this is a great place to learn and gain experience.

Cons

The Dallas office Sr Mgmt is completely disconnected from staff. The top mgrs that aren't giving you lip service have their hands tied. Projects are stretched with not enough staff or inexperienced staff. Burnout is a common problem. Teams are often broken up to fill immediate needs. Yes men are promoted, not the builders. If you tell the GM what he wants to hear, you're getting promoted. Little work has been won in Dallas due to efforts to chase work in other states, which has proved unsuccessful. Too many policies in place to keep employees from forming relationships with industry partners. We can't even go to lunch with architects!!!
