Poor management and arrogant "engineers". - Senior Engineer Babcock Power Employee Review

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

1) Pay is above average. 2) A decent amount of paid holidays. 3) Nice modern offices.

Cons

Micro-management practice with some engineers that cross over the professional line and are very arrogant. Project managers sell jobs for x amount of hours with a scheduled due date and then hand it off to an engineer in a manner in which they must "race" through calculations to meet the deadline. This practice is done by the project engineers to "bank as-sold hours" in order to increase the profits - which is very hard and unfair to any engineer. Bottom line is, the company does not care for its' employees under the management level.

Sometimes projects are thrown at you without an introduction in what is happening and you have to figure it out along the way.

Pros

Yearly bonus based on company performance in addition to pay raise based on individual performance. HR very supportive of employees.

Cons

Building and office is quite grungy. Some managers shouldn’t be managers as they have little experience in managing people well. Poor behaviors and poor teamwork goes unchecked.
