Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We take all comments seriously, whether raised internally or via external platforms, and we would welcome the opportunity to discuss your specific concerns directly.
That said, we feel it is important to respond to several points raised here, as the claims made are broad and lack specific, substantiated detail.
On organisation: EECO2 operates structured internal processes across its engineering functions. We acknowledge that no organisation is without room for improvement, but characterising the business as "disorganised" without reference to specific processes, teams, or incidents does not provide us — or readers — with meaningful context.
On treatment of staff: This is a serious characterisation and one we firmly reject. We hold clear expectations around professional conduct, workload management, and respectful treatment at all levels of the business. If any individual has felt their treatment fell below acceptable standards, we strongly encourage them to raise this through our formal internal channels, where it will be taken seriously and investigated properly.
On progression: This is perhaps the area where we would most strongly push back. EECO2 has an established performance review framework underpinned by a clearly defined skills matrix, designed specifically to support engineers in identifying development pathways and progressing their careers in a structured, transparent way. A number of our engineers have advanced through this framework in parallel with their professional institution progression — a route that also reflects the expectation, common across the engineering profession, that individuals take active ownership of their own development and continuing professional development (CPD).
Career progression in engineering, by its nature, requires self-directed learning, initiative, and engagement beyond the day-to-day role. This is not an unreasonable expectation — it is consistent with the standards set by institutions such as the IMechE, IET, and CIBSE, and is a principle we support our engineers in embracing.
We note that the review acknowledges the quality of colleagues as a positive, which we appreciate. Our people are central to what we do.
We would reiterate our openness to a direct, constructive conversation. Formal, attributed feedback — rather than anonymous generalisation — allows us to respond meaningfully and, where warranted, act. We remain committed to being a place where engineers can build genuinely rewarding careers.
