Our New York office has been growing tremendously over the past two years and we are thrilled about the team that has formed. We understand that work can be done remotely; however, being together fosters employee growth, knowledge transfer, betters mentoring and collaboration. Plus, we love being with our team. Our people are the best part of Epstein and we like to have fun together. Like most companies, communication is always a challenge. We continue to learn from employees' feedback and adapt.

Good people to work with

We are with you... the turnover in our industry is much higher than any of us want. We are starting to see a change in the trend which is surely welcomed. Epstein has invested a lot in new technology platforms over the past three years to improve our workflow. We hope that it will improve efficiencies as our staff master the new programs.

Pros

The engineers and architects that have been here a while are always more than happy to collaborate and assist another discipline. Within my group, I have found a lot of support from direct peers, pms, and the discipline lead for professional goals and also personal circumstances. The variety of projects is great.

Cons

High turnover rate, stressed staff, unreasonable design-build deadlines that are always pushed back because they are unobtainable from the start and based on the construction schedule only.

Epstein reorganized in 2022 to address our concerns with project management. We promoted one of our best to Director of Project Management and are starting to see real progress in improving the way our projects are managed.
