      Pros

      Salary, Leaves, Team Outing, that's all

      Cons

      I am not talking about the whole CDM Smith; CDM Smith, in general, is a very good company. I am talking about the GDO Data Scientist team. The team environment is toxic because of two stupid people. Because of them, no one wants to stay on the team. Everyone leaves after a certain point. They just support each other and do not let a third person grow just because they are good friends or whatever they are. They are the worst people I have met in my life. Only those two can survive together because both of them are toxic.

      Pros

      Flexible hybrid schedule is very nice and starting salary is high for early career engineers.

      Cons

      The main people running the company are not engineers and you can tell. They are all focused on utilization with rates often set at 97% or higher. This had led to my supervisor asking/telling me to not charge company required trainings. As an early engineer it really feels like they don't want to invest in me and only care about their bottom line. If you are an early career structural engineer you will also not get any meaningful work until you've been with the company for at least 5 years. The senior engineers do not trust you and will only give you grunt work.
