Avantages

Pay is good for a sweatshop. When hiring, they will give you great promises of the projects that they have for you to work on and the size of the company. They are good at work sharing between offices as long as you do not include a Carter Burgess office.

Inconvénients

85% chargeability or be gone. Leave & holiday days + training + staff meetings = 300+ hours/year = 15% overhead. So you must always be working on billable projects or you are gone. No support for marketing . Has no interest in smaller projects, only want multi-million dollar federal and industrial projects. Always looking to classify required work as extra work for a change order to increase fees.
