Pros

Marketing machine good at messaging campaigns National technical expertise Networking great (H ave D rinks R eady) High female to male ratio

Cons

Glass ceiling for technical design engineers, suffocating environment PM's earn large salaries on the backs of technical design engineers that earn far less, Female to male salary ratio is low (based on labor/fee proposals), Dollars spent on overhead cannot be sustained long term, HDR labels a person through a personality test from day one, Senior male managers text each other to stay under the radar.
