Pros

Chance to work on famous bridges. The employees are nice to work with.

Cons

The US subsidiary is small and not grown in 10 years due to losses. Employees are never promoted based on performance but only when the company really needs it (like if ceo had no one else to take that position). Salary is below average and ceo micromanages employees like school kids. They have nice brochures, website and global presence so they easily lure new employees but most people leave in 1-2 years. They are very good in sales and marketing but extremely poor at operations. The ceo is more interested in powerpoint presentations than in ensuring efficiency and quality at the production shop due to which most projects either lose money or have warranty claims.

Pros

Coworkers were from diverse backgrounds

Cons

- Company goes through more cycles of boom and bust than the biggest bubbles of the stock market. One year they are on a hiring spree, next year on a firing spree. Company went from 'we absolutely need a factory to starting a factory to closing it and saying we don't need a factory (and losing millions in that process). - people come and go at this company, faster than the busiest airport of the world. - CEO micromanages all employees more than Kim Jong un micromanages N.Korea. Instead of acknowledging and addressing that, the CEO keeps blaming former employees for company's failings (most of which barely stayed a meaningful amount of time). Its pretty much my way or highway with him. - CEO only promotes people when he needs it (has no other option).

Pros

Good pay (after you fight for it) good benefits

Cons

They love to waste money and have no idea how to operate in the u.s.. Packed deadlines and always rushing. Rushing so much that stuff is wrong or just incomplete.
