Pros

CH2M has some great people and provides the opportunity to work on interesting and challenging projects.

Cons

This company has completely lost its way. For years it was a solid, employee owned company. But over the last few years it has changed course multiple times in an effort to line the pockets of its top executives. The first attempt, which involved expanding into high risk types of projects, completely backfired and resulted in huge cutbacks and layoffs in 2014, although the outgoing CEO, who orchestrated the debacle, was handsomely rewarded. Now it's all about preparing for future executive windfalls by reorganizing, again at the expense of employees, by sending hundreds of jobs to Poland. Many senior, longtime CH2M employees are fleeing this company and its easy to see why. Beware.

Hello, first of all thank you for over 10 years of service! We’re sorry to hear you feel we’ve lost our way. We know that as CH2M grows, we had to make some changes, but we still strive to operate ethically and on the foundations CH2M was built upon. Your feedback will be passed onto our management team.

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?"
