Pluspunten

Decent benefits package - 401K, medical, dental

Minpunten

If you are not a midwestern white male engineer, this company is not for you. It is toxic and abusive for women, LGBTQ+. and minorities who are not engineering staff. A competitive and bullying environment comes top-down from leadership. Technical staff treats support staff poorly and there's no accountability. There is no room for growth (or even support) if you aren't connected to the good-old boys or related to their inner circle. Their flat structure pertains to all support staff, so you bill your time with weekly timecards even if you're a salaried employee. They're systems are archaic and disorganized, but if you don't log your time weekly, you won't get paid, even if you're exempt.

Pluspunten

Highly flexible schedule Ability to select projects to work on Guaranteed bonus

Minpunten

Lots of after-hours work Administrative disconnect with field staff responsibilities that can lead to frequent miscommunications No direct manager to distribute work during slow seasons Weekly overnight travel for full-time field staff Arbitrary pay scale in relation to job level (engineers performing the same work will automatically get a higher pay scale) Safety management has an abrasive approach to reporting often placing strain between project manager and field staff relations Work schedule can be extremely unpredictable and dependent upon individual clients A client first mentality sometimes means that interpersonal communication with internal staff gets neglected leading to unexpected project requirements for staff under project managers
