Private Equity doesn’t pay

Professional engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

Not many come to mind… benefits (aside from compensation) were solid. But let’s not kid around - no one goes to work for a company because they kick a little extra into your HSA or give you an extra dental cleaning lol.

Cons

Private equity firm - stay away. Stifled bonuses and raises. Will literally tell you you have a raise or promotion and it’ll take months if it ever materializes. They will say ANYTHING to keep you around.
