Huge amount of redundant paperwork No recognition of areas of the company that are not mega projects Huge overhead for things such as marketing, that only served mega clients No ability for regional or local professionals to proceed without interference The number of managers is exorbitant

Pros

Decent company, good stock plan, good people who want to see you grow

Cons

Very remote management makes things hard, very little team work is locally siloed so its hard for managers to understand the boots on the ground view. Managers are great people but spread very thin, sometimes they accept work before having staff for it(classic consulting move)
