Pros

Large company with lots of opportunity for growth. If you demonstrate value and are flexible with your goals they work hard to keep you around even in slow periods. Very organized and structured which some don’t like but it makes it easier to integrate compared to company with low structure. Always something new to learn. Work life balance is better than other places in industry….not expected to work long hours or stay after hours for “team building”. Lots of options to specialize in your area and not be constantly pressured to take on leadership/stretch roles.

Cons

Won’t commit to hybrid work schedule, project management generally opposed to it even though most employees want more flexibility. Worksharing with other offices can make work hours difficult. If you come in on low range of pay scale can take years to catch up. In the past the work culture and work-life balance was very different depending on your project management team, might be more consistent now but still can vary (IE one project may be very flexible with schedules where another is very old-school “must be in office” management style).

Pros

Hi visibility projects. Rewarding experiences Competitive Pay

Cons

Sub-bar Project Management team. Condescending at times. Entitled. Sense of superiority. Confusing Hierarchical Structure and chain of reporting. Two managers. Administrative Organizational Unit Manager and a project manager. You report to both. Not flexible at the implementation of latest and most robust design software. Extremely cautious about the implementation of AI, sacrificing productivity and cutting edge competitiveness. Extreme focus on employees training on the companies policies and procedures, but not on the technical development of employees. Do not internally promote, rather they hire from outside for vacant higher positions. Remote workers are considered second class citizens. Not equal to those who work from the office, despite their credentials and pedigrees.
