Typical Multinational garbage company

Pros

Some of the coworkers were fun to work with.

Cons

Horrid communication. Terrible management that are unable and unwilling to reduce billing rates to attract new business. Senior level employees typically do not answer your emails if they do not have the time for you. Work is handed to members of cliques. The CEO is clueless and directionless. I predict ch2m operations in Canada will be bankrupt in less than a year. Do not apply to work for this 3rd rate company.

Pros

Telecommuting, flexibility in working locations, some great people.

Cons

If you don't have top coverage, your time on board is limited; top heavy senior management earning huge salaries and not contributing to the bottom line efficiently. Us technical people doing the work with not support. Client centricity model isn't working; having no overall admin number to charge to if you're not considered a BD person is crazy; using vacation time so as not to incur overhead costs is a widespread practice that no one open admits to but everyone does it. Not a way to manage an organization. Truly care about your people so they don't feel like they are a number on a spreadsheet and only as good as their previous project. There is no loyalty.

Pros

haven't been able to identify one yet

Cons

Horrible company that does not care about their employees. Took over a great Canadian owned environment firm, destroyed its reputation and ultimately dismantled it.
