Friendly and skilled people, but political hurdles exist - Sr. Mechanical Engineer Hatch Employee Review

great work environment, very communicative and collaborative. Easy and open communication with PMs and upper leadership.

need to be proactive to get work, especially if you're new. lot of travel, pro or con depending on your outlook.

Very good technical development sessions. Eight hour work days.

Salaries are heavily biased towards one ethnicity. Gender bias as well. Sweet talk same work but less exposure and definitely less salary. Also caught when a recruiter sent the same job to personal email. No discussion yet on career goals. Offer letter was rude. Asked for a min 2 yr service requirement for a 5k moving cost. 401k is 50% of employee contribution capped at 6%. 6% is employee contribution . Means Company pays only upto 3%. Have to slog 15 yrs for entry level min to get associate status. No 401k until second yr. No overtime. Claim flat structure but no involvement in technical meetings where stamping needs to be done by the said engineer.
