Pros

Used to be a great company to work for but not anymore. Occasionally has some interesting and challenging projects Very average compensation and benefits

Cons

Very poor profitability due to extremely bloated corporate structure and complicated, archaic, and byzantine internal processes to pursue and book new projects. These processes make it extremely difficult to be competitive with smaller and more nimble competitors. Numerous corporate restructuring efforts that simply shuffle the same upper management around into different org charts with no real changes in operating model. Pays out 401k company match funds in CH2M stock that cannot be sold readily as no one in their right mind will buy it.

Thanks for your feedback! Our complex internal processes are one of the main reasons that we’ve transitioned to a new Client-centric Operating Model. By organizing around our clients and by flattening the organization, we’re making things simpler. The Client-centric Operating Model also enables us to better focus on our ultimate goal: solving our clients’ toughest challenges and making a difference in our communities and across the globe. We’re already starting to see signs that it’s working! We hope you’ll consider joining us again someday.

Pros

Vision and mission, benefits, interesting projects, offices...

Cons

I66 Management is ridiculous. A PM who has absolutely no idea - he's not even an engineer - and a business manager who has been continuously described by the client as incompetent and useless. It weighs heavy on me to hear the client saying " is this really ch2m?"
