Pros

Interesting oil and gas projects Stable Decent benifits Pay OK Still a few great senior engineers willing to mentor jr/int engineers

Cons

New management doesn't have a clue how to run a successful engineering firm. Very shortsighted with only being concerned about the bottom line and not providing solutions to clients or healthy environment for employees. No concept of paying employees for performance.

Pros

-Benefits are decent -Nothing else worth mentioning

Cons

-It appears company does not have clear directions, it's all over the place -Not company for an old man- after years of service, management is only looking to phase you out bringing in younger (cheaper) kids. It is unfortunate this age discrimination cannot be proven... -If you are not billable you are on furlough immediately

Pros

All the Pros left one way or another.

Cons

As the title states. Cons people out of their previous job and HR cons you though out your stent as when good engineers leave by the masses, you are made the wipping child. Even though of the shady workings I was still motivated to work with the powerhouse thats gobbling up every niche in the market and let my work show. I was wrong. Higher ups would: Verbally hit you below the belt. Give you so much work to where PMs think you were incappable. Talk down on you as if you were imcomptent. Keep you out of mettings . Lastly, change work flow when you endured all the above. You end up leaving there in a constant state of befuttlement. Corp just sits back and enjoys it. PB i heard such good things about . What happend?
