Keystone Engineering reviews

Working at Keystone overall is a pleasant experience. Ownership is directly involved in operations and they are easily accessible and approachable. Everyone is treated respectfully and professionally. I've never worked anywhere else where management cared about the employees as much as Keystone does. Benefits are pretty good and the flexible schedule is awesome. One of the biggest pro's of working at Keystone is the knowledge gained working alongside some very sharp and experienced folks.

Keystone Engineering has a friendly culture that focuses on excellence in design. We create revenue by providing engineering calculations, designs, and recommendations to Oil and Gas majors (mainly Shell and Valero). Since our top client, Shell, has stringent quality standards, we have increased our level of quality to match. Most of the projects we earn are within the $1MM to $250MM budget space. We currently have great contracts with our clients, but they are all short term projections for the most part (design phases are <1yr). I see within the next decade that Keystone will be granted a contract to design an offshore platform, like Olympus, through our partnership with Shell. You will have similar opportunities throughout New Orleans and Houston, and upper management is aware of that. The main reasons to work for Keystone are that it is a locally-owned company which has a friendly but aggressive approach to work. You cannot possibly have a better work schedule than what Keystone offers. Period. I work 9 hours Monday through Thursday with 1/2 day on Fridays. Excellent paid time off, +50% 401k match, Professional Organization fees are paid, and competitive salaries across the board.
