H - Senior Graduate Engineer WGI Employee Review

We appreciate your candor related to overtime pay. You are correct that salaried professionals are not paid for their overtime at WGI; however, there are many positions where overtime is compensated at our firm. We do expect our professionals to complete assignments that are typically measured on a five-day (work week) duration. Because WGI is a federal contractor we must adhere to the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FARs) in regard to “giving PTO for overtime worked.” The FARs specifically prohibits this type of arrangement and WGI is not permitted to provide the option as suggested. There are other ways that you can benefit from unpaid overtime, and I would be happy to explain legal options if you reach out it me. Great suggestion!
