Salary - Recensione dipendente - Graduate Structural Engineer presso Fairhurst

Support from senior members of staff and training

Low salary no clear routes to promotion

A few genuinely kind and hardworking people doing their best despite the environment. Opportunities to work on varied projects if you can tolerate the culture.

The culture is toxic across multiple offices. Micromanagement is excessive — even the smallest things, like when you take lunch, are controlled. A deeply ingrained boys’ club mentality, particularly in regional offices. Female staff are consistently undervalued, underpaid, and overlooked for promotions. Complaints about inappropriate or unprofessional behaviour are brushed under the carpet instead of being dealt with properly. Management is completely disconnected from reality — they protect their own rather than listening to staff or improving the environment. High staff turnover for a reason. People don’t leave because of the work; they leave because of how they’re treated.
