Pros

Workwise, good company. Needs improvement though, in terms of project management and tools/ technology being used. But, the company does have a bright future ahead.

Cons

HR and Immigration departments need a lot of improvement. No process followed. No employee engagement, very less interaction. Very slow response time and mediocre performance in resolving any employee issues.

Pros

Nice location near downtown and Southside. Half the building has a view of the river. Benefits are competitive (medical, dental, vision). Free garage parking across the street.

Cons

The employee perks have continuously declined over time. They used to have a nice catered Christmas party that disappeared during the pandemic and never returned. They used to have a common sense policy for meals while traveling, but that was just replaced with limits for each meal that are inadequate if you are traveling to a major city. They are also starting to track how many days each person comes to the office and seem to value that more than the results produced by each person. The company also does not reward people for going above and beyond, such as working significant overtime, working night shift at site, etc.
