Pros

Offices all over the world.

Cons

The organisation of this company is just awful. Coming on board to the company was a total mess. I have been routinely ghosted by members of other teams. There is no rotation on the graduate scheme, you just get stuck on some boring mind numbing project and chucked all the data entry work the higher ups don’t want to do. If you want to transfer internally, be willing to wait half a year to even start the new role There is no training for the role as it’s apparently too expensive. You just get given a job and told to get on with it. People around me complain non stop about how bad the company is. Higher ups who sit near me will routinely say out loud that the company is bad. It’s not at all what you get advertised. The ‘anonymous surveys’ to give feedback to the company will come back to hurt you if you say anything at all negative. I have seen colleagues be asked to discuss what they said in ‘anonymous feedback’ and given a telling off. They don’t take any feedback on board that doesn’t suit their agenda.

Pros

Great team culture, supportive colleagues, and opportunities to learn and grow. I gained valuable experience across project coordination, operations, and reporting.

Cons

PTO and sick time are combined into a single accrual bank, which may not align with every employee’s preferences. Benefits are generally competitive, though the 401(k) match could be stronger.

Pros

With over 30 years in the engineering industry, I can say without hesitation that this is the most employee-attentive firm I have ever had the privilege of working for. What sets this organization apart is its commitment to staying at the forefront of the industry — not just technologically, but in how it values and invests in its people. The collective expertise of thousands of dedicated professionals here doesn't just benefit the company; it makes a meaningful impact on the world, and that sense of purpose has genuinely reignited my passion for engineering. The opportunities for growth are both vast and real. Across the firm's many initiatives, there is something for everyone who comes to work curious, motivated, and eager to contribute. This is not a place where ambition goes unnoticed. After more than three decades in this field, I have found a place I am proud to be part of — and one I hope to remain a part of for many years to come. If you are considering joining this team, I wholeheartedly encourage you to take that step.

Cons

If I have to mention a con, it would be monetary compensation, but who doesn't want more money. I took a paycut to join this firm and the amount of time I am investing, could be worth more than my current salary warrants.
