Pros

I was hired as HDR was acquiring another company that hired me originally. HDR has done a nice job keeping the smaller company I work for informed about the whole process and we even got a small raise at the end of the year. It also provides us to acquire more projects internally so we do not have to compete for outside projects because HDR is so large and has such an expansive reach.

Cons

It is more of a corporate environment and the salaries are less competitive than at a smaller private company. There is also a lot more red tape than there was previous to the company's acquisition.
