Pros

National network of intelligent colleagues Company stock basically always outperforms the market Variety of fieldwork - soil logging, rock core logging, geophysics, some field engineering Decent safety culture - CEO seems genuine

Cons

Raises are often insignificant compared to inflation Significant pay disparity between field geologists and engineers- sometimes up to 10k/year Field geologists and engineers all do the same tasks They usually hire new people at a higher pay and never increase the staff that’s already there

Pros

Learned many thing, work in a great culture, helpful coworkers

Cons

Nothing - In general, salaries in civil engineering are relatively low compared to the tech industry, which makes it difficult for young professionals to join and stay in the field.
