Ctl Engineering reviews

worked on various projects, covered multi crews on different sites on the same day, did overtime, travelled to another city, stayed overnight and drove back to home on the weekends for distant projects (yes work-life balance can be poor). unpredictable schedule since it is tied to the contractors' schedule, must find restroom often times to take a leak. Sent home on rainy days or extreme cold days without being paid. Used my personal car for ridicules car allowance (~21 cents per mileage and only counts after 45 minutes or 30 miles drive). Your car is your office, must endure sitting in the driver seat for long hours if weather is extreme and/or assigned on state project (being on the highway). Did all that with minimum benefits. 2 weeks PTO started off on the 2nd year. Great place for being exploited. No promising promotion and 1% annual raise in a 9.5 market inflation is NOT a raise! Company did not invest to be certified during my time (2 years). Management does not check on their employees.

Communication is a two way street. Although management is easily accessible, there are delays in communication and implementing action items and owner/employees are equally responsible. COVID and remote working has affected team building and communication. HR services need improvement. Although overall compensation with ESOP and 401K match is very good, base salaries could be increased to attract more talent.
