Consulting engineering is not for everyone and that is true at Coffman Engineers. People cannot float along. In-fighting is not tolerated which in general means that it is a peaceful workplace but some personalities just will not fit. Project work can require working extra hours and a lot of flexibility, but the company is flexible in return. Work hours are not directed but I find that the people here work themselves very hard. Insurance benefits are not as generous as at big multinational companies but the company has worked hard to shop for good insurance rates..
