Pros

I love most of my coworkers and the fact that I WFH. The pay is good for the area. The benefits are decent, the improved since last year. They offer 401(k) with match and employee stock options. PRO is generous and they pay for a STD benefit and offer a buy up plan to supplement that benefit. Plenty of opportunities to travel and work abroad.

Cons

They don’t deposit the 401(k) match into your account until the end of the calendar year. The STD benefit is at their discretion and they won’t pay out the full amount if they choose not to. HR is a ticket system based on Krakow. Poor performers stay on because bosses are too busy to deal with them.

Pros

Decent culture, individual contributors are fine, management is lacking

Cons

The company operates like many smaller companies depending on which business market you are in so your experience will vary. For some, it's the best company, others will say it's the worst; it just depends on your region/group even at the local level. Water/wastewater is a good market in most offices, transportation is hit an miss depending on location.
