Pros
Lots of work all across the United States and expanding
Cons
Upper mgmt not strong at all. Not involved on large projects enough . Jobs not bided correctly
Advice to Management
Get proactive. Get out there and see a project and predict problems and deviate as needed . Make sure the bid is on par for our requirements. Remember if you man up directs you will need to man up Indirects. Field verification is a must. Do not have too many people multitasking g so much that they are not able to fulfill their primary role. One team starts with you.

Pros
Nothing to add here at all.
Cons
- This place is highly political. In order to do well you have to drink the kool-aid. You will only excel if you brown-nose and are in the cliques. - Communication is very poor. - Managers frequently embarrass/belittle their direct reports. - There’s nothing special about working here. The people are so lazy and ignorant. - There’s a lot of turnover in various departments. - They set you up to fail. - People... will lie, cheat, steal to get to the top. If you want a happy and healthy workplace, do not work here.
