Pros

I worked at Alares Engineering for 3 years. I liked the work because it was diversified and meaningful. The main mission of the company is to help improve the lives of veterans through design services. the company is growing in all areas of design. they recently won a major contract to provide design services for all federal and state buildings in New England. I would have stayed at Alares but my wife got a great job out of state. I enjoyed the people who are very friendly and it is a nice place to work. The owner is a former green beret and west pointer. I have learned a lot from him and respect him a lot. He is one of the best bosses I worked for. The hours are reasonable and flexible. The owner allows engineers to work independently and does not interfere unless deadlines are missed. there is fast advancement to positions of authority if that is what you want. I would recommend Alares to any engineer.

Cons

the work can be out of state so expect to travel a few days per month to visit job sites. if you like travel then it is good.

Pros

Because its a small company there is an opportunity to get experience in several different areas of the business. The owner puts a lot of trust with the employees. Meaningful work helping out with other veterans. If you like to travel there is plenty of opportunities to travel. Love having half day Fridays in the Summer.

Cons

A couple employees with poor performance feel they were unfairly let go. Those are the bad reviews on this site. Believe me, they did not deserve to work at this company. Only top performing, professional people work here. Each and every employees contribution is important to the success of other employees and the company.
