Pros

Was a great company with amazing leadership and people until 2017.

Cons

Leadership seems to have forgotten that if you take care of your clients and employees, have a good product and revenue and growth will come. They only care about revenue... not the people driving it or the quality of the end product.

Thank you for your review of our company. We regret that you left Rimkus after more than 10 years of dedicated service. Losing a long-tenured employee is always disappointing for us, so we work hard to review why employees leave and to improve areas that affect employee morale and staff retention. Over the past few years, Rimkus has been focused on supporting a robust growth strategy. In some cases, our growth has resulted in changes to leadership personnel. However, our leadership (both then and now) share the same goal and vision: to be the best in our industry, to offer outstanding service to our clients, and to help employees reach their highest potential. That didn't change in 2017. Nor has it changed today. At Rimkus, our reputation speaks for itself through our exceptional work product and esteemed industry experts. We don't sacrifice quality for quantity, and we don't put revenue over people. We are still a great company, with dynamic leaders and exceptional professionals. And we plan to stay that way.

Pros

They pay bus development managers above average

Cons

I was hired for business development but was set up to fail. I was asked to tell customers we provide full-service engineering in South Florida, even though we didn’t have the staff, no electrical engineer and no Threshold Engineer, needed for the work. Many structural projects in the area require a Threshold Engineer, yet I was told to mislead clients about our capabilities. Immediately after starting, I learned my manager was interviewing. The company operates on a shoestring budget. There is no money to sponsor customer events or trade shows outside the Northeast, where they’ve acquired two engineering firms in the past five years. The BES division is barely surviving, while Forensics is doing well, but overall, lack of resources and poor planning make it very hard to succeed here, especially when your boss is vigorously interviewing to leave.
