It may be an ESOP, but the company is run by Project management.
CH2M Hill is supposed to be one of the most Ethical Firms in the USA, but I didn't find this to be accurate.
Part of my position was to source services. I discovered a major flow in the pre-existing plans. Through my skills and knowledge, I found a safe, lower cost and much lower risk solution. For this I did receive verbal commendations. However, the Project Manager and the JV Partner at the Project site did not appreciate my disrupting their plans - I was accused of being somehow tied to my 'blokes'.
A role at CH2M Hill could be OK, but you have to review the REAL power structure for your job. I was not working for the PM; I wasn't even supposed to be working for the Procurement Manager - I was just tossed to the wolves by the technical director to satisfy the PM.
Good luck to you if you go here.
