Vantaggi

Locations - multiple locations so you may not need to commute as far.

Svantaggi

Underutilization of staff - due to poor project management, many of us just sit here waiting for tasks. Upper Management and project managers need to recognize this. Time off policies - Since the organization is split between so many offices, there should be an organized way to request time off. Yet there is not, which results in communication breakdowns between employees and employers Company Values - the only thing I have learned here is to not use overhead hours. repeat no overhead. Family commitments must take the back burner and very restricted to no time to work from home. Lack of efficient project management - the project managers are victims of upper management. They don't know how to keep on schedule because upper management does not know how to train to do so, or even implement measures to keep track of projects and the project managers themselves. Lack of transparency - I have only been here a short time but I still don't know what projects are heading my way for the rest of October, November and December. I worry that if I don't have projects lined up for that time that I will have to bill overhead. BUT REPEAT NO OVERHEAD. Also, I am not aware of how the company is doing in general. Are we staying on budget? How efficient are we with running projects? Are we keeping in contact with our clients to make sure they are happy?

Vantaggi

I first started as a civil engineer in 1998. I thank EBA for providing EBA with my first professional work experience. I have had the opportunity to work a wide range of projects and EBA allowed me freedom to best utilize my abilities. The leaders were always available to guide me when needed and supported me when called upon. I have worked at other firms since first starting at EBA but returned to EBA since it was the best culture for me. I have been back since 2007.

Svantaggi

There is always room for improvement. The leaders are always thoughtful of employee welfare. There are business realities just like anywhere.
