Vantaggi

The benefits are good and premiums are in par with industry standards.

Svantaggi

The company focused too much on utilization and not enough on internal growth. Many talks by the executive level on the need to provide internal growth, but employees are laid off as their project end. New personnel is being hired for new projects leaving existing employees to fend for themselves.

Vantaggi

Flexible hybrid schedule is very nice and starting salary is high for early career engineers.

Svantaggi

The main people running the company are not engineers and you can tell. They are all focused on utilization with rates often set at 97% or higher. This had led to my supervisor asking/telling me to not charge company required trainings. As an early engineer it really feels like they don't want to invest in me and only care about their bottom line. If you are an early career structural engineer you will also not get any meaningful work until you've been with the company for at least 5 years. The senior engineers do not trust you and will only give you grunt work.
