      Concerning Business Outlook for the Rest of the Year (2026)

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Hybrid set-up (2 days WFH and 3 Days On site) - Work-Life Balance is superb! - Has 3 offices in the Philippines (Quezon City, Makati City and Cebu City)

      Cons

      Business outlook not good atm. They expand in the Philippines thinking they can make it as an important hub to leverage the low salary. The main issue was they forgot their entire Australia business. The higher ups are now consolidating "business regions," laid off a lot of workers from Australia and North America and is starting a manpower outsourcing business that cater to their competitors. If you were hired by GHD as an electrical modeler 2 years ago? Don't be surprise if your Manager told you to work on as an Architectural Modeler or Civil Drafter just to have those utilizations up! Career path for experienced modeler and engineer is non-existent and good luck creating quality works when workers either laid off or resigned.

      Questionable management, but has potential to do better

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1. Flexible working hours and structure, Working from home is not discouraged 2. Good exposure to prominent regional clients, particularly useful for junior employees

      Cons

      1. Work processes and quality standards are not standardized company-wide. UAE region seems to do things differently to Australia (HQ) and other regions who seemingly have long-standing systems to produce their output, Whereas, in UAE: little attention is given to work standards/quality and training new employees on how to do things, at what expected level, how it should be be presented and communicated internally and externally. This causes quality of work to be focused on quantity rather than quality of output - further exaggerated by the immense pressure of having a lack of resources and staff to support the size of projects. 2. Very slow progression, and minimal attention and training given to junior employees 3. Repetitive projects - no exposure to unique and diverse types of work. Not good for early career progression. 4. Major budget limitations - affects new hires, resources and salary progression. This causes teams - particularly engineering teams - to be immensely understaffed and as a result: overworked, and hence, undercompensated. 5. Further on above: Pay is lower than market standard and competitors.
