Commoditising Consulting Engineering

Pros

Good, competent colleagues, 5 weeks paid leave, health and income insurance.

Cons

Burn-out work schedule, and really a Mechanical Engineering Consultancy pretending to provide other building services etc. as part of the package, with no backing, recognition, or career progression outside of core HVAC services. Has a problem of awarding only 'show pony' 'engineers', problems equating employee IP contributions to the bottom line. Bonus scheme is an absolute joke and meaningless to unobtainable - discount this as part of any salary package. Bean counting trumps customer needs, and eventually breaks client trust. Rewards corporate as a profit centre without recognising where contributions come from. Iffy (at best) HR practices. Poor Australian management practices. Utterly awful paranoid IT - over 6 months to have approved (project required) engineering software installed.

Pros

Great benefits, 25 days annual leave, 10 days sick leave, Flexible working hours, 37.5 working hours a week as per contract. Profit sharing. Very good firm for graduates to get experience

Cons

Very long hours of work Not enough resource to get the job done on time Profit sharing is dependent on the boss if he likes you. Abusive Boss, shouts at people in the middle of the office and humiliate employees. Boss has been sued a number of times and had to pay out to avoid employment court appearance. High staff turn over The Boss is a control freak and highly political, It's his way or the highway. You need to be a yes man to last in this company.

Pros

Given tasks outside standard role. Variety of different projects to work on. Office staff are easy going and good to work with. Social events organised by staff outside of the office are fairly frequent.

Cons

Often there is a very large workload. Project deliverables are often moved forwards or projects end up with tight time frames. There is a lack of career progression and a lack of recognition. The company has become very profit focused since being taken over by Tetratech, cut a lot of staff or many up and coming talent has left for other competing firms. Intergration with Tetratech systems are forced down and often don't mesh with current systems well.
