Pros

Learn from employees, some of whom are excellent teachers (Ted Dunsford). Flexible hours, and the workplace is like a giant family. Fun place to work.

Cons

Roles can be a bit ambigious or assignment tasks not too well defined. Specifications can change as well.

Pros

some staff engineers are friendly.

Cons

Lack of work, lots of favoratism towards young and attractive females. In my time there a newly hired young female was introduced to the board of directors, taken to client meetings, and given better field opportunities. Women given perks denied to others as well (ex: car rentals for conferences). Moreover, training for fieldwork was completely inadequate. GEI has the habit of giving as little training as possible (to male engineers at least). Female engineers were given one-on-one training with senior professionals/management. Instead of being promoted (flawless year end review, high utlization) was laid off. Advice to others is to be careful. Review has nothing to do with who they decide to let go.

Pros

Flat organization, opportunities for advancement, and employee-owned. GEI is also a very collaborative organization and one while mid-sized, can compete with the largest global companies out there.

Cons

High growth puts stress on culture, will be interesting to see how the next few years play out.
