Pros

The best part about working at Farnsworth group has been my close relationships with colleagues. Over the years we've all become great friends that were fostered by company events outside of work. Everything from softball teams, bowling teams, golf outings, holiday dinners with your plus one, and picnics. As a company, they are always fair and treat everyone with respect and dignity. Advancements and promotions are given based on merit and not favoritism. I would highly encourage anyone looking for a rewarding career to give Farnsworth group a shot, you won't be disappointed.

Cons

With around 500 employees, expectations and policies are well documented in the employee handbook. They are very flexible on a day-to-day basis, but less likely to make major long-term exceptions. For instance, a request to work four 10-hour days on a regular basis will likely meet strong resistance.

Pros

- Colleagues - Lots of work, so lots of experience - Admin staff - Basic benefits like anywhere else - Monthly phone stipend - Company vehicle for traveling to job sites

Cons

- Remote work became less and less tolerated (even if work was being completed) - Pay was stagnant and only received inflation-related raises. To put some context, our hourly fees increased about 10-15% each year for inflation and miscellaneous factors, and our pay only increased 9% total in three years. - Always encouraged to work extra hours to meet deadlines, however, no overtime pay. - Year end bonuses were abysmal for the first two years even after record breaking revenues those years. At a point, there was no incentive to work harder if the year end bonus was only going to be f i v e h u n d r e d dollars compared to the thousands upper management was receiving on top of profit sharing. - Profit sharing: only a select few within company are invited - Management: Some managers took the job way too seriously, micromanaging and feeling them breathe on your neck. It clearly showed how little they knew about managing individuals and only cared about profits and how many hours were used on a project. - Saw more HR hires rather than engineer hires to help balance work loads - Constant pressure on our time sheets and making us move time away from general and into projects…
