Decent Firm with Growing Pain

Pros

Better than average compensation package in the industry, diversified business portfolio and decent job stability

Cons

Actual technical strength mismatches with firm size: There are 35ish big name fellow engineers making 140k not being able to do much of any work (design or manage) in our main business line - transportation projects. Shall we worry that our clients would eventually find out our strength and performance when they see our work? No worries of course if we are not selected for the work. That happens but we don't want see that happening too often.
