Pros

The work is interesting and the salary is fair. They have a great reputation that they try to cultivate. They seem to be truly concerned about safety on the job and in the home. If you're willing to relocate there seem to be many national and international opportunities.

Cons

we're expected to pay for a large part of the health insurance. in our local office, and particular division there are not that many projects.

Pros

Excellent workforce, interesting and meaningful work in almost every field that you can imagine. Relatively free movement between operating units if there is an opening.

Cons

Management is fickle. Personality-based rather than performance. A lot of pettiness at the upper levels of operating units.
