Pros

HDR's pay scale is good. The core ideas behind the company are solid and the type of projects they take are impressive. There are excellent engineers within the firm. Some sectors are stronger than others.

Cons

Actions within the organization unfortunately don't match the mission statement and stated core values; The organization is grouped into sectors and the sectors don't work as one company; This creates a lot of cross competition and less focus on the client; If you are male, you definitely have a better chance at promotion. Diversity is limited to skill, there is no cultural diversity to speak of.

Pros

Culture, schedule flexibility, depending on management, remote work, and employee owned, okay benefits

Cons

Parking sucks. The office is in downtown so you have pay just about any where you park. Work is repetitive or stagnant sometimes.

Pros

Fantastic teamwork. The Coastal Group is very close and highly collaborative. There is a lot of support from upper management in the Coastal Group. Lots of projects lined up.

Cons

PTO and Sick Leave are tied together.
