Pros

Flexibility, CH2M allows you to work from home or the office or anywhere, as long as your internet connected. CH2M also has some landmark projects, and some great people that make up the company. However, it used to be a great company, family feel and employees were well regarded. Unfortunately because CH2M has had some recent "bad" projects, the company constantly goes through a restructuring and has some considerable lay-offs.

Cons

CH2M talks about work-life balance, but in reality this is not true. There is considerable pressure to stay client billable and if you are not, it is very likely that you are going to be made redundant. CH2M has a little yellow book of values, but rarely follows it, and management pressures employees. One specific example would be the DTRA Program Manager - who insists that his direct reports and staff that work on the DTRA program only bill 8hrs per day on their timesheet, regardless of the actual hours that they work. Although this is a direct violation of company policy - it is forced upon the employees who work on this program.

Pros

Interoffice support was outstanding. Engineers across the company just a phone call or email away, willing and able to assist with unique engineering challenges.

Cons

Out of sight out of mind. If you weren't located at one of the design centers, finding project work was difficult at times.
