Vantaggi
A good place to get some initial engineering experience, but don't plan on staying long.
Svantaggi
The Project Management career path is non-existent. They have it all on paper, but don't practice what they preach. Morale is really low among staff, and there have been a loss of good personnel now that the employment opportunities for engineers are better. The firm has been floundering ever since Tim Wall has taken over, with no direction and the Wilbur Smith buyout was the biggest mistake that has cost the company millions$$$ and valued staff. Instead of trying to retain senior staff that brought the company to it's greatness in the 2000's, most have left or were let go due to utilization pressure. Randy Rogers, the COO of the North American Unit has probably contributed to the loss of many valued employees, as no one wants to work with him. This is definitely not a company I would plan to spend a career at. If you are new engineer and looking for a job, I would recommend other firms. There really is no exciting opportunities with this firm. They are just a commodity provider in the engineering world, not a leader.
