Pros

The salaries in AEC firms are very good compared to typical A - architecture firms. Currently the location in cypress is convenient but we will be moving to santa ana shortly. Pretty decent people and the 401K has Vanguard as the carrier of mutual fund choices with low expense ratio with plenty of choices to choose from. This is appealing to me because at my last firm, the choices were not as many and the expense ratio was quite large in comparison. Also, this firm pays for people to train themselves and encourages professional development to complete the goals fo the individual.

Cons

This is a large firm and people have difficulty working at the top.
