Pros

There are great people at this company who will not only be good coworkers but eventually make good friends. the projects they get are award winning and interesting - the scale is huge. There is a vast network of engineers at your disposal.

Cons

The company does not invest in it's employees - don't expect any engineer to have time to give you on-the-job training even (because the corporate budget doesn't give them the time). Management is making policy changes that is eroding the company culture. Benefits are horrible compared to both small and large firms in the industry. Hope your manager is good at getting work for your office - because if he isn't, you'll spend a lot of time twiddling your thumbs and using your Paid Time Off to cover time without a project (yes, the company makes you use your vacation time to "float" between jobs). Corporate is currently replacing employees with expat workers from Poland as they are cheaper.

Pros

Vision and mission, benefits, interesting projects, offices...

Cons

I66 Management is ridiculous. A PM who has absolutely no idea - he's not even an engineer - and a business manager who has been continuously described by the client as incompetent and useless. It weighs heavy on me to hear the client saying " is this really ch2m?"
