Pros

I have worked in the Richmond office about three months now, and it was probably the second best choice I have made career wise right behind choosing to continue my education and get a Masters Degree in Geotechnical Engineering. Everyone in the office is friendly and easy to get along with, making it a great work environment. The biggest pro for me has been the opportunities my supervisor has given me thus far. Even though I just recently started, I have been put on large and technically challenging projects and have been surrounded with very knowledgeable co-workers that are providing invaluable mentorship. This combination is allowing me to grow as an engineer much faster than my fellow classmates and friends that are currently working for other companies.

Cons

Some of the software the company uses is slightly outdated and newer more efficient programs should be utilized.

Pros

Always Hiring as people leave eventually

Cons

Working at this company was an overwhelmingly negative experience. The work environment was toxic, with disorganized and unapproachable leadership that fostered fear instead of collaboration. Management lacked basic leadership skills, frequently micromanaging, playing favorites, and avoiding accountability. There was absolutely no work-life balance, employees were expected to work long hours, including nights and weekends, with little notice. Compensation was way below industry standards, and there were no meaningful opportunities for growth or development. Company communication was poor, and major decisions were made without transparency, leaving employees confused and demoralized. Overall, it was a frustrating and draining place to work, and I would not recommend it to anyone.
