Pros

This firm boasts a strong mentorship program where experienced engineers are genuinely invested in sharing their knowledge. They embrace innovation, investing in cutting-edge tools and methodologies to make projects engaging and challenging. Importantly, they understand the need for work-life balance and are actively seeking ways to offer flexibility alongside demanding projects. The environment is inclusive, valuing diverse backgrounds and approaches – you'll be respected for your unique skills. On top of this, the compensation is competitive, recognizing the value of top electrical engineering talent. The company operates on a collaborative model, carefully matching projects to skilled engineers while offering opportunities for growth and exploration across different areas.

Cons

While the company provides career development resources and promotes goal setting, there is room for improvement in translating these goals into concrete skill development outcomes. In the dynamic realm of technology, client demands can occasionally veer towards the unrealistic, resulting in tight deadlines, potential scope creep, and financial implications. Persistent supply chain challenges exacerbate these pressures and create challenges for job satisfaction and career progression. Gannett Fleming prioritizes risk mitigation in the post-2020 environment, streamlining protocols and documentation. While necessary, this can sometimes add administrative burdens and slow project execution.
