Thanks for the review and I am pleased to see how positively you feel about working at Ulteig. I especially am glad to see that you are getting so much support for your work. Good point about billable hours as that work we perform for our clients is our business model, and some employees work additional hours to meet project needs.

Thanks for the review. I am glad you appreciate Ulteig's flexibility and other aspects of our total rewards package. I hope you have spoken with your manager about the additional training that you need. Regarding your point on the 2% 401(k) match: the reason for that is because the company invests significantly more in the Employee Stock Ownership Program (ESOP), which is also a retirement benefit, and is 100% company funded.

Great company & great opportunities, if you are able to get into the office.

Business Outlook

Pros

Very well run engineering firm with great pay and benefits.

Cons

Can feel difficult to build connections and ultimately grow if not at least hybrid. Working a fully remote role I have trained multiple new hires in my role, have value added skills that other do not, and have been there as long if not longer than than others with my same title, yet they have been promoted to senior/advisory roles.
