Pros

Small Projects, No personal growth, No proper work distribution, Only two week of vacation even if you have 20 years experience. Stay away.

Cons

No grass root projects, All maintenance work type of projects, No technology and expertise in any field, Not a single in house programs or soft wares. Uses others programs. No training to young engineers, Just hires fresh foreign graduates who are not resident and uses them by paying very low salary with lie that we will apply for the resident card. No one should consider this company. Do not believe what they say in Interview.

EDG Response
11y
I'm sorry you feel unhappy. Please reach out to your supervisor and make them aware of your concerns or go to a Principal and voice it as we want to address any and all issues. To clarify, if you come into the company with 5 years of industry experience you qualify for 3 weeks of vacation and you can bank an additional (4th) week of vacation if you choose to. To date we have assisted with numerous employees who have pursued and were granted their Green Card with EDG as a sponsor so I can't fathom what you are referring to regarding the lack of support with that or in regards to the fanatics so please come see us with more information on that as we don't want anyone feeling excluded.

Pros

Many pros, EDG started as an oil and gas firm exclusively but has made great progress into other industries such as automation, industrial, and utilities in the last few years; what this means is workflow is becoming even more steady regardless of what the oil and gas industry is doing. EDG is also an employee owned company so there is a notable emphasis on employee comfort and longevity at the company. Philip Mynt, the current CEO, is a great leader that has some initiatives to grow the current pros and address some of the cons below. The last pro I'll mention is honesty; when times were hard in 2020, like they were for all O&G firms, corporate leadership was had the courage to tell us the real state of things; cut backs had to be made, but to my knowledge, no full-time employees were laid off.

Cons

EDG is a relatively small company within the industry having somewhere between 500-1000, and the compensation levels I think are reflected by this. Technology within the company is a little behind but this one of the initiatives Philip is working to address and I would see this as a short term con in mid 2024.
