productive place, good people
Substation Design Engineer (Current Employee), Centennial, CO – August 28, 2012
working for one client for 5 years, gets to be a bit repetitive. company is aging and i don't believe it to be headed in the right direction. headquartered in kansas city so a long term career in management ends up there.

Sayanara – May 15, 2013

This review sounds like an employee who was put up to putting a friendlier face on the company. The statement was so very HR, one I have heard before. So hollow.

Run, don't walk away from this company!
Construction Manager/ Federal Services Division (Current Employee), Overland Park, KS – June 20, 2012
Pros: more than a job, it's a way of life.
Cons: everything
Revolving door culture people! Stay away, there is no job security here, only the upper management stays in place here, the people with less than 5 years are expendable.
