Pros

Strong safety culture and some dedicated professionals.

Cons

Same tired corporate approach to recognizing the individual through their CDPR yearly review process, which goes nowhere. Management is weak and inefficient. You never know what's going to happen next. Internal communication is just as weak as management and they are both linked together. If you are a professional, you do your best and plan for the worst, due to weak managers who just don't have the chops. Dreadful.

Pros

There were good people to work with, felt like a team. Field work was fun and interesting.

Cons

With so many layoffs, it is not a team environment anymore but everyone out for themselves. No professional development (courses or conferences) available unless you are a favourite No room for upwards movement for females as seen by the very few females in leadership roles Poor pay. They pay you as little as possible with at or below standard cost of living raises most years, using the economy as an excuse. Salaries are lower than competitors. Numerous layoffs. Nobody's job is safe. There is no loyalty to those that have spent 15-20 years or those returning from maternity leave. The atmosphere is tense with everyone wondering who is next to be walked out the door.
