Downward Spiral

Pros

There is nothing to report unfortunately.

Cons

Sargent & Lundy has been trending downwards for years. There is limited workplace flexibility and management is motivated by favoritism. Compensation is not performance based; you will make as much as your peers that do nothing. The Human Resources department is extremely unprofessional.

Too Strict

Pros

I really enjoyed the people I worked with even tho the work environment doesn't promote getting to know your co-workers. Other than that, the pay was consistent and raises are determined by how much of your free time you are willing to give up after work

Cons

Sargent & Lundy is a very strict workplace, you don't realize how strict it is until you work other places that don't make big deals about arriving 5 minutes late. It is frowned upon to even check your phone let alone be on it when a manager walks by. It always felt like I was doing something wrong and was being told these little things count in my reviews. This being my first real job out of college, I thought it was like this everywhere, so happy I decided to leave to take another position.

Thanks for your review. Our various company-sponsored activity groups and sports teams are intended to help employees get to know one another, and our collaborative office environment is specifically designed to make colleagues more accessible and teamwork more convenient. However, examples you have described, such as showing up late for work, taking extended lunch breaks, and making personal calls as those around you are trying to complete their work, are all issues that can have a direct, negative impact on the work environment. Ultimately though, performance is the primary gauge our supervisors use to enforce these types of workplace issues. It sounds like you’ve landed somewhere that’s a better fit for you, and we wish you well in your new position.

Sketchy management but okay for new graduates

Pros

Plenty of work and you will get to see various design and project types. Great place to get your feet wet for young designers/engineers. Vacation and benefits were competitive.

Cons

Nepotism is rampant, favoritism even more so. 'What have you done for me lately' attitude from management. Work 70hrs/week today and dog meat in 3 months when things slows. In order to stay competitive they increase new higher pay faster than current employees. Meaning at some point you will train someone making as much, if not more than you are making.
