Pros

Great professional people, very friendly and as a large organisation people from all over the world. Met some really nice people there and learnt a lot from the more mature and experienced people. The head office is really nice and modern, so working conditions were good. Benefits aren't the best but they are not bad and every month or two there are social nights where the staff enjoy a great night out to socialise with their colleagues, often subsidised by the company.

Cons

Opportunities for growth and progression are available only if you are able to put the extra effort in. I was working 45+ hours a week (contract 37.5) and still not good enough, it is frowned upon if you get off your seat at 5pm! The large projects and on site offices means moving locations and working with different staff all the time.

Pros

With over 30 years in the engineering industry, I can say without hesitation that this is the most employee-attentive firm I have ever had the privilege of working for. What sets this organization apart is its commitment to staying at the forefront of the industry — not just technologically, but in how it values and invests in its people. The collective expertise of thousands of dedicated professionals here doesn't just benefit the company; it makes a meaningful impact on the world, and that sense of purpose has genuinely reignited my passion for engineering. The opportunities for growth are both vast and real. Across the firm's many initiatives, there is something for everyone who comes to work curious, motivated, and eager to contribute. This is not a place where ambition goes unnoticed. After more than three decades in this field, I have found a place I am proud to be part of — and one I hope to remain a part of for many years to come. If you are considering joining this team, I wholeheartedly encourage you to take that step.

Cons

If I have to mention a con, it would be monetary compensation, but who doesn't want more money. I took a paycut to join this firm and the amount of time I am investing, could be worth more than my current salary warrants.
