Pros

Sandis continues to bring in resume building projects; exciting projects from exciting clients. The company challenges their employees. Every engineer has the opportunity to work through the complete process of land development, and to become a very well-rounded PE. Furthering education is encouraged and supported. Lots of great personalities.

Cons

Pay less than industry standard, but you likely will make the same or better than standard with overtime and the end of year bonus. Deadlines are occasionally unrealistic. Workloads are occasionally unhealthy. Seems rare for management to recognize and/or reward employees.

Pros

Hands on with large marquee projects, encouraged to take on important roles in projects and interact with clients. Company wants employees to learn and grow, helps out with education and has an experienced work force that is willing to teach. Company has a strong team dynamic and gives employees a chance to shine. Recognizes individual effort and makes sure people get the help that they need. Is actively trying grow both the company and workforce in a positive direction. Pay and bonuses are very competitive with the market. Benefits are above industry norm.

Cons

Heavy work load where everyone is expected to carry their own weight. Needs of clients can sometimes out weigh reality of group work load.

Pros

1. Lots of experience working on a variety of projects (healthcare, residential, hotels, parks, etc). You will be working on up to 15+ projects at once and will learn alot at a quick pace. 2. Company outings are pretty great. 3. People are very knowledgeable and passionate about their work. Everybody is willing to help one another.

Cons

1. Workload and deadlines are unpredictable (you'll sometimes touch 10+ projects in one day) and can get very stressful, but that's life. 2. Lots of micro-management even when you have a clear direction on where to go. 3. Compensation is not the best compared to industry averages in the Bay Area.
