We appreciate all feedback, as it plays an essential role in our efforts to grow and improve. Our attention and focus to all aspects of the workplace environment have led to us being recognized as a Great Place To Work for the last nine years running. While we’re pleased the reviewer recognized the balance in some of our expectations, we are concerned hearing their experience with our management and work environment fell short of our standards. Maintaining a well-structured, supportive workplace is a top priority for us. We continually evaluate our processes to ensure they are clear, realistic, and fair, and we are committed to making improvements where needed. We appreciate this feedback and remain focused on ensuring a positive environment where all employees can thrive.

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…
