Pros

Diversified business sectors, pleasent work environment (well at least outside Alberta) Good employee review and employee goal setting process. Engagement in remote communities. Poor business development and tracking processes. No CRM in place. Slowly establishing an Aboriginal Engagement focus.

Cons

Poor communication of corporate goals across all sectors Poor integration of Project Management processes across all sectors. Very poor Project Management Framework system. (not top tier at all) Poor communication and siloed thinking across sectors and business units Poor representation of women and ethic minorities in Senior Management (99.99% of the EVP and SVP level are middle age white men) Old boys network keeping some 'dead weight' around that should have been culled. Too many VP's and 'bosses' brought on through acquisitions. Poor oversight of key EVP's who are kingdom building.

Pros

You will be working with great minds. People have their niches expertise and it’s wonderful to learn from them. Very professional and respectful behavior. Doesn’t feel like other consulting firms where you’re worked like a dog.

Cons

Sometimes it’s hard to build consistent work because people tend to hold on to their projects rather than transferring to junior staff and it’s mainly because the pressure to be billable is high.
