Pros

Talented engineers and scientists that are good to work with.

Cons

Upper management is clueless. If your not located in the Carolinas, you're invisible. They tend to play favorites, and if you're not a favorite, there's no point in staying.

S&ME Response

Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your 10 years at S&ME and are sorry to hear that you felt undervalued in your location. We acknowledge that as S&ME grows, communication and culture can be diluted the farther away from the “home” office. We aren’t perfect, but we are evolving and adapting to create an environment where our employees can be their best. As an example, we recently announced a new Office Principal role in each location to foster organizational communication, collaboration, and culture within each office. Please reach out to us with any additional feedback at feedback@smeinc.com.
