I am paid on schedule and in accordance with the agreements outlined at the time I was hired. There are annual cost of living increases.
Cons
Zero opportunity for advancement. In renewables, the number of people I have seen elevated could be counted on one hand. The primary skill rewarded is the ability to extract yourself from a client related morass.

Thank you for your review and the time you have spent as an engineer at UL Solutions. We are pleased to hear our compensation program has met your expectations. In addition to our performance based merit increases, you and all full time employees are eligible for our annual performance bonus program and 401(k) plan.
Customer Centricity is truly one of our core values at UL Solutions. We strive to deliver unique value with empathy, solving customer problems and needs with our technical and scientific expertise. Career growth is equally important to us. Our quarterly Navigate My Career check-ins with your manager are there to help foster conversations about career aspirations and avenues for growth. Admittedly Renewables is a more niche area, meaning opportunities may not be quite as abundant versus other operating units. We are excited we have new executive leadership focused on growing our niche businesses, creating more opportunities for advancement.
Thank you again for taking the time to share your review; we appreciate the time you have spent with UL Solutions!
Role eliminated while executives and higher-ups spend ridiculous amounts of money on travel to "conferences", while transitioning the team to all contract/external employees to alleviate "budgeting" costs.
Leaders continue to appease to higher-ups and C-level executives without a care or understanding of current team dynamics to protect themselves in a cutthroat and toxic environment filled with corporate politics.
0 growth for internal designers at below market salaries (20-25%) and below average benefits- when mentioned to leaders, profits are increasing YOY, yet the discussion becomes a "let's circle back" while 10+ contractors are immediately brought on board.
