Pros

Good pay and flexible hours. Good benefits

Cons

Big gap between workers and management. No ladder of advancement based on qualifications and experience. You must know someone to move up. Management does not recognize talent unless it looks favorably on them. Lots of family working in the same offices. Family members get the first crack at new openings. Many in upper management have big egos. I would only recommend this employer because their salaries and benefits.

Pros

- Very competitive salary - Competitive benefits - 4 days * 10 hours work week is typical, but may be different for a given project - Incentive programs depending on the project - They make a good effort to develop new talent through a graduate development program (although not always work, you'd need some luck) - What you learn depends on the project you work on - The younger crowd is very friendly and supportive

Cons

- If there are not many active projects prepare for layoffs. One might say this is the case everywhere, but it seemed to be specially true in this type of company (engineering services) - If there are not many active projects and you are able to stay in the company get ready for a you-are-lucky-to-have-a-job culture where you are expected to do whatever you are asked to which could very well be meaningless. You might end up jumping between different insignificant roles. - There is not a clear path for career growth. I had the impression engineers are seen as an asset used to make money (instead of a culture where people grow their careers within the company).

Pros

Benefits, 4 day work week & lots of projects to keep employees into the future. excellent compensation, insurance and good leadersip at the 1st and 2nd levels of supervision.

Cons

The continuing change of work processes caused confusion,as well as poor communication between departments. There is very little to complain about my experience there.
