RecommendsNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at Gulf Interstate Engineering full-time for more than a year
Pros
Good not great benefits, competitive salary, big scale projects, good work-life balance, 9/80 schedule, a leader in the industry, fun social events
Cons
All groups are very silo'd, future of the company and its owners are very uncertain, lack of top-down communication, nepotism is the rule not the exception
Advice to Management
Be more transparent about the company's vision over the next five to ten years. Be careful with the level of nepotism. It seems to be getting out of hand.

RecommendsNeutral OutlookApproves of CEOI worked at Gulf Interstate Engineering full-time for more than 5 years
Pros
Management treats employees well, benefits were good for the size of the company (compared to competitors). Reasonable work/life balance.
Cons
Opportunities were a little bit limited for long term career prospects. Training for growth with job skills wasn't prevalent. Advancement opportunities were slow and tough to come by.
Advice to Management
Identify younger employees that like the company and its culture and establish a track for advancement and management training to retain them long term. Focus on long term talent retention instead of just performing current work well (push for employee/department goal setting and accountability each year).
