Interesting complex projects, incredibly smart people working with you in engineering, industrial, and architecture disciplines, competitive pay if you negotiate it.
Cons
Long hours, weekends, travel (sometimes international) without much prior notice, management and department leaderships do not see eye to eye, lots of micro-managing from executive leadership.

We agree with you that we have incredibly smart people at Epstein. We are sorry to hear you did not have a good experience at Epstein. Unfortunately the construction industry typically requires long hours and weekends. We hope your next position was a better fit for you.
Half day Fridays hands down. Some select cool people to work with who have talent.
Cons
Management thinks up reasons to cut salaries and charge more for benefits while expecting top effort from overworked underpaid employees. Key leader checked out while sitting at desk earning bank - to this day. No one trusts HR because dept head spouts personal employee business to the board members.

As I think most companies have experienced, Epstein has seen an uptick in our insurance costs on both the employee and employer side. However, we do not want to reduce our benefit level since we know how important insurance is to our employees.
As the person in charge of salaries, I cannot think of any salary reductions made since the Recession when we did all we could to keep as many people employed as possible.
