Pros
Lots of opportunities to grow professionally. Employee ownership is amazing.
Cons
don't do a great job working between business units to facilitate employee growth. Too worried about the bottom line instead of the employee asset.

Pros
If you get in with this company, stay with them! I’ve never worked for an employee owned company before, and it’s been such a welcomed and positive change. No office drama, opportunities to easily move to other job locations if you’re interested, and the option of remote work if your job allows for it. Great company, great people.
Cons
None in my experience so far.

Pros
1. First focus is client service, which is how it should be. I've worked for other firms that primarily focused on attaining an inflated profit margin, which leads to questionable billing practices and undeserved employee stress at all levels. 2. Within SCS Engineers, professional accomplishments, skill sets, and reputations are impressive and broad ranging. 3. Everyone I've met or worked with is highly responsive and available, no matter their level within the company. 4. Despite having nearly 1,000 employees, SCS Engineers moves with agility and feels like a "mom and pop" company. 5. As alluded to above, the culture within SCS Engineers is the best I've ever experienced. I've worked for several firms and government entities and can say without a doubt that the culture within SCS is approachable, professional, friendly, genuine, encouraging of individual of growth, and highly concerned with employee satisfaction. And this is not just spoken to, these things are happening on a daily basis.
Cons
I haven't found any, as of yet.

Pros
Friendly co-workers, organized, good benefits. As a new employee I've never been made to feel like I'm a "new" employee.
Cons
Can't bring my dog to work - not that I could at my last employers, but I had to put something here. Which basically means I have no cons.

Pros
The work is important (helping companies develop risk management and safety programs that make their processes safer for their employees and for the general public), technical (you become very familiar and comfortable and work often with chemical engineering terms without being too difficult), and collaborative (constantly working with clients and other associates to fix issues or learn more techniques or information).
Cons
Clients can sometimes be tricky or difficult to work with (e.g. not respond to emails, not provide enough information, etc.). Certain assignments can take much longer than the hours that are allotted to you, which can lead to long days/nights or weekend work on projects.
