Hatch reviews

Most financial and promotional benefits filter to management. Because of the loose structure that has allowed Hatch to grow and promoted a good work culture in the past, the company has too many 'managers' now and its hard for younger employees to step up and make contributions without a manager taking credit for it. Things that are top heavy fall over...

Montreal Tunnel group has zero in-house geotechnical engineering design capacity (Mississauga office does all design work), no clear business plan, an ever-evolving structure where roles are disturbingly vague, project management and controls are damningly lacking, inappropriate for younger engineers looking for design/build experience on major projects (technical expertise is shunned, as is innovation). General: Long hours, most are unpaid. Paternalistic male-dominated management structure, with inflexible mandatory work times (8-5, no exceptions) with public dressing down if one deviates. Workplace misogyny is pervasive, especially among senior male engineers.
