Pros

Opportunities to grow are good. We are a strong company, and I think we have a pretty good business model. I think the organization does allow for innovative approaches to be tried, but with a pretty short leash. I have worked at companies that are FAR less amenable to change and think progressively. Comparatively, I think we focus less on Wall Street than other consulting firms - maybe the Dutch influence, but we seem to have more long term thinking that just "what will the stock price do at end the month" that I have seen elsewhere among senior management.

Cons

With all the acquisitions, we are becoming much more bureaucratic. Too many mundane decisions are pushed too far up the ladder - more local authority (and responsibility) would allow us to be more nimble.

Pros

The company is always growing, so lots of oppertunity to get involved in new areas. We have outstanding benefits, and a great working environment.

Cons

Because we are always expanding, there is a lot of change each year.

Pros

Management are solid "engineering business people" who understand that sustainability requires solid buinsee principals be applied to the company. Yes, you must be profitable in order to be a sustainable organization.

Cons

Dealing with the realities of a very agressively managed company. Not much time to relax and take a breather.
