Pros

When I’ve spoken to technical people they’re mostly all lovely, just severely over worked and can’t support you on bids so you’re left by yourself panicking

Cons

Professional review process is none existent, and the meetings are set up as a tick box exercise. No progression path clearly defined, while expecting staff to work at the level above with no remuneration (while saying they’re not ready for the promotion). When concerns are raised to senior management these are either brushed away and ignored, or you are told you could have done more (when this isn’t possible. Lack of motivation and passion across the board due to how management treat staff. A whole systematic change is needed to improve day to day roles of employees. Blame culture is rife. Induction is none existent.

Pros

Great team culture, supportive colleagues, and opportunities to learn and grow. I gained valuable experience across project coordination, operations, and reporting.

Cons

PTO and sick time are combined into a single accrual bank, which may not align with every employee’s preferences. Benefits are generally competitive, though the 401(k) match could be stronger.

Pros

With over 30 years in the engineering industry, I can say without hesitation that this is the most employee-attentive firm I have ever had the privilege of working for. What sets this organization apart is its commitment to staying at the forefront of the industry — not just technologically, but in how it values and invests in its people. The collective expertise of thousands of dedicated professionals here doesn't just benefit the company; it makes a meaningful impact on the world, and that sense of purpose has genuinely reignited my passion for engineering. The opportunities for growth are both vast and real. Across the firm's many initiatives, there is something for everyone who comes to work curious, motivated, and eager to contribute. This is not a place where ambition goes unnoticed. After more than three decades in this field, I have found a place I am proud to be part of — and one I hope to remain a part of for many years to come. If you are considering joining this team, I wholeheartedly encourage you to take that step.

Cons

If I have to mention a con, it would be monetary compensation, but who doesn't want more money. I took a paycut to join this firm and the amount of time I am investing, could be worth more than my current salary warrants.
