Pros
its hard to say there are pros to working at syska. I will say this they have good marketing materials, branding and resumes and you can win projects with them. additionally I will say that they provide good access to up-to-date standards. Senior management has decent people skills but the problem is they are so secretive that every interaction feels contrived and disingenuous. there are good engineers here but they tend not to have a voice in the company.
Cons
basically you would have to try very hard to be as ineffective with as much resources at your disposal. lots of infighting. there is not a single aspect of syska, other than marketing materials and branding, where they shine. when it comes to almost any other metric syska is mediocre. there are quality individuals but those people also tend to be curmudgeons with absolutely no influence because they are so frustrated with the way things are. If you are like many good design engineers you want to work on challenging projects and be successful. every process, standard and method of getting things done made this more difficult than any other company you had ever worked at, be it drafting standards, admin support, marketing support, every project management and design process is inefficient and ineffective. the worst looking drawings i have ever seen any company produce. the worst design processes i have ever seen. try getting some engineering software on your computer. good luck. it is basically impossible. try finding a mentor at this company once you are beyond senior level. impossible. I will leave and start my own company. I am going to market heavily to my existing clients because I know for a fact that syska will let them down after i leave. try getting them to hire even one junior engineer to work under you. the company is a hopeless disaster slowly turning into a sweatshop that cannot be trusted with anything other than TI projects.
