Pros

There are very little pros. They underpay their employees

Cons

The marketing team is racist and sexist. They constantly bring up peoples immutable characteristics as reasons to not highlight the work they did in order to give an impression they are trying to be more diverse. Their executives are 90 percent white men, the group itself is 90 percent white and they constantly put others down for things they cant change. I recommend not working here

Pros

Flexible hybrid schedule is very nice and starting salary is high for early career engineers.

Cons

The main people running the company are not engineers and you can tell. They are all focused on utilization with rates often set at 97% or higher. This had led to my supervisor asking/telling me to not charge company required trainings. As an early engineer it really feels like they don't want to invest in me and only care about their bottom line. If you are an early career structural engineer you will also not get any meaningful work until you've been with the company for at least 5 years. The senior engineers do not trust you and will only give you grunt work.
