Pros

Very good and smart people, very technically-competent; flexible work hours, decent compensation. People are committed to doing the right thing.

Cons

Management vacated their role about 3 yrs ago when they started to shop the company around, and left the company adrift. Spent all their time "detailing" the company to get a better asking price, sacrificing some of the best features of a good workplace. Pirnie continues to tread water with old clients, but no real "strategic direction" or real new clients since merger, no commitments to marketing. Lost number of good clients (and staff) due to COI with Arcadis.

Pros

Great reputation in the industry, relatively easy project-sharing and cooperation among offices (which are not their own cost- or profit-centers), home to some real experts in their respective fields.

Cons

The firm can allocate resources and attention much differently to different geographic areas/offices. Some internal procedures and communication pathways work wonderfully, while others are quite problematic or outdated.

Pros

Provided a friendly atmosphere to work in that also allowed a flexible work schedule.

Cons

If you show any competency at your job you will be favored over your coworkers, which is a double-edged sword, you will be worked to the bone in the process.
