      Not Impressed..

      Pros

      Worked with some extremely smart, friendly and great people. Senior technical staff is very knowledgeable. Good opportunity for entry level engineers to learn a lot. Employees are hard working and dedicated. Some interesting projects and clients. Qualified Project Manager track available. Flexible hours and schedule. Free lunches. Nice office.

      Cons

      Next to no training or mentoring programs or focus on learning in general. No clear technical leadership track for engineers. Disconnect between service lines and offices. No clear direction for business development, going after projects that company does not have experience/specialization in. Company is in a time of transition and if you wait it out it, it certainly may pay off, but I did not want to. Large amount of employee turn around. No overtime or comp time. Unclear employee bonus program.

      Pros

      As a three-decade vet of the engineering consulting world I've had the occasion to work on hundreds of projects, for dozens of clients, and with countless team members and colleagues... I have been most impressed here at Kleinfelder at the exceptional quality of the staff, their work, AND our clients. The performance "bar" is set high and results are expected, but goals are reasonable and fair for a high-performing organization with aspirations of healthy growth. My experience thus far has been a very positive one, especially in an industry that can be quite difficult and challenging at times.

      Cons

      Potential for overworked and burned out staff... load-leveling as well as hiring quickly, and at the proper level, could improve. Uncertainty associated with CEO search.

      Pros

      The firm is about to add a new CEO, which will be the result of a rigorous search and qualification process. I think the Board of Directors, including some stellar outside members, is very strong. The firm is definitely at an inflection point and I believe we are going to emerge from these changes a stronger, more dynamic place to work. One of our best assets is a core of loyal clients who bring us a wide variety of technical challenges.

      Cons

      There is change fatigue (culture/morale), but I believe many employees have decided to embrace the challenge. Some strong staff members have resigned recently - but those of us who are committed to make it work will help to pull us through this transition.
