Junior Engineer

Pros

Good benefits but not clearly explained

Cons

Your first week they will give you a paper with just the drawing of the bridge (a single paper) and say design it. When asked how or previous examples their response was “figure it out”. Then after submitting it 2 weeks later you get fired for not meeting expectations as a junior engineer.

Thank you for your feedback. It is regretful that your expertise was not a fit for this position, and it left both you and H&H in an uncomfortable place. The scenario presented does not align with what we offer or expect for a new employee’s orientation; we will be speaking to the involved manager to review. Please feel free to reach out to me to discuss. Even though the position didn't work out, we never want an employee to leave with negative spirits. Best wishes on your future endeavors. (SB)

Pros

Good pay Interesting projects Many locations Growing client base

Cons

Lack of direction for new employees Didn't feel valued as a person or as an employee just a butt in a chair with billable hours Provided little to no constructive feedback on job performance except when criticizing work once changes could not feasibly be made Senior engineers took credit for work after making miniscule changes to work by others HR not helpful or understanding to employees No form or mentor/advisor program despite being told there was one when I inquired about it at my interview As a female I felt as though I was only a diversity hire and basically like I was just being put up with in the office and they treated the male intern with more respect and welcoming. Would not recommend working here unless you are a male and would like to do all of your professional growth on your own time.

Thank you for your feedback. It’s certainly not how we wish you to remember your time with H&H. Within the engineering industry, we have a great record of hiring, growing and promoting women within H&H, so your observations caught us off guard. We will be reviewing your comments with the referenced staff. Our Mentoring Program as well as our Professional Development Program, HHU are run through the Employee Portal and are available to every employee, 24/7. Taking your comments to heart, we will work harder to promote our content internally, so others do not miss the provided programs. Please feel free to reach out to me if you would like to speak further; I would appreciate the opportunity. (SB)

Pros

Great CEO and company vision Movable bridge niche Decent 401k match Straight overtime pay Internal monthly webinars

Cons

No bridge design work in local office Nighttime bridge/tunnel inspection or emergency inspection work Office culture is terrible Takes a long time to get promoted Salary, raises and bonuses below industry standard No help with relocation Minimal job related training No reimbursements for professional memberships and license expenses The office manager is extremely manipulative and runs the place like a jail, monitoring every smallest aspects of daily routine including interactions with other engineers, coffee and lunch breaks, food habits etc. The principal in the office has no interest in interacting and developing relationships with his fellow engineers and hardly ever listens to or implements new ideas on how things can be changed for the better.
