Great Environment

Pros

Halff offers a great working environment. The people are excellent mentors and very friendly. Coworkers had positive attitudes and there was never workplace drama. There is a wide variety of projects to work on, so young engineers can see what areas they are interested in. Overall, this is an excellent company to work for with plenty of opportunity to advance your career, grow as a person, and develop relationships. Definitely recommend.

Cons

The benefits package is a little lacking, but NOT a deal breaker. The health insurance is unusual and somewhat confusing. When I first started we could only use our paid time off (PTO) days if we used a full 8 hours at once. Meaning, if you wanted to leave at lunch and take 4 hours off you had to find a way to make up the time or just take the whole day off. Policy changed to where employees can use 4 hour blocks of PTO, which made things better, but there shouldn't be restrictions on how many hours someone wants to take off at a time. Overall, the company is making steps to improve their benefits and moving in the right direction.

Pros

Halff offers a broad range of consulting services which gives employees the opportunity to participate on multi-discipline projects and explore career opportunities as they develop. Everyone is included in the project management process which provides the chance to interact with the clients at an early stage in your career. Halff also encourages and supports participation in professional organizations and activities.

Cons

Halff has a flat organizational structure which is a challenge for young professionals to see how they will progress in their careers, but this actually prompts growth based on individual merits.

Pros

There's little separation from EIT to team leads, which allows for a true team atmosphere and also the opportunity to learn from the most experienced. Work life balance is excellent. Seems to be trending upward as Halff wins more and more projects. Work flow is steady, and the scopes of projects are diverse, even in the same discipline. The people of every department really do make the job great, even if the days are long. Would recommend the company to anyone.

Cons

Would like to see EITs be able to vary their project involvement to help expose them to more, in turn making them more well rounded engineers.
