Business Outlook

Pros

The older staff is very happy to help. Good benefits, you are compensated for any extra work.

Cons

Can sometimes be stressful and require you to work overtime when deadline are near.

Coffman Engineers Response

The compensation for extra work just seems right. That's why we pay for overtime even for salaried employees. If we are able to bill the client for your value, then we should pay you for that value. Hopefully, that slightly mitigates the stress when overtime is required by the project schedule. I hope that helps (from an older staff member). Dave Ruff - CEO
