Pros

Good benefits Stock Plan Pay is better than average

Cons

Good 'ol boys club, get in and your golden, if not, they will make you unbillable and then guess what... Hires younger workers to replace the older more expensive staff. You are on your , own... career path? there is nothing unless you get in with the 'ol boys. Employees have to use personal vacation when the company has no work... happens all the time.

Pros

nice office surroundings, decent pay

Cons

I will have to say that in my numerous years in IT, this is likely the worst place I have ever worked, as well as the only job I have ever had to leave in less than a year. As with most companies, the manager can make or break the job. I was shocked at the amount of favoritism given to long term employees and those who know how to bs with the "boss." New team members are never given the chance to make an impact on the team or shown any appreciation for their work. Work/Life balance is non existent as employees and contractors alike are expected to work 50 plus hours routinely per week, with no chance for flex time or working from home. In addition, senior management does not condone employees talking to them if they have any issues. Strange, I thought the open door policy was just common sense in today's workplace? Many of my fellow employees were dangerously physically and emotionally drained. If you care about your health, family or your mental well being, DO NOT take a job at CH2M!!!!

Pros

Vacation time.....it used to be good but senior management is horrible.

Cons

They do not watch out for their own. They bring in the coldest people I've ever seen work in a business and then chop heads. They can actually eliminate jobs and then go and laugh about it while they keep people with drinking problems and other problems I won't mention here.
