Changed to a big corporate hairball with VP's courting new CEO instead of keeping an eye on the business. - Manager CH2M Employee Review

Pros

Collaboration with professional colleagues. Proud of the work product. Middle management tries hard to shelter/protect staff from poor management practices of Director/VP levels.

Cons

There seems to be a communication breakdown between the CEO's direct reports and below. The CEO may say, cut costs by 10M to a direct report, however that direct report provides no guidance on how to go about doing this. So VP/Directors scramble to cut here and there, sometimes in a logical fashion however many cuts are made in a knee jerk reation just to satisfy the higher-ups. No thought to how it affects the business in the long run. It's all short term, reactive management.

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?"
