Good first job but don't stay

Structural design engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good, varied project experience allows you to build engineering skills (depending on your group, some focus on specific project types). "Comp time" allows for more flexibility and vacations.

Cons

Low total compensation compared to the local market. No raises or bonuses for getting PE/SE. The management are inflexible and old school. Work can be high pressure and high responsibility with inadequate support and punishments for mistakes. An excessive percentage of people (75%+) get fired or quit within 4-5 years of hiring.

For two days, employees can work from the office. Additionally, they have the flexibility to work overtime at a rate of one time their regular hourly wage. Overtime pay can be carried over and used as paid time off (PTO).

Cons

Gradual salary increments per year, coupled with stringent deadlines, are prevalent.

Business Outlook

Pros

Great place to lay the foundation (no pun intended) to being a great engineer! You will learn a lot in a short amount of time.

Cons

Weird corporate culture. I just cringe at the podcast listeners, self help books, etc.
