Pros
Good working environment, work-life balance (in 43 reviews)
Good salary, great working environment with plenty of opportunities to collaborate with a diverse range of divisions (in 35 reviews)
Cons
The company is siloed with a bent towards engineering as most of the senior management are engineers (in 18 reviews)
Furthermore due to the nature of the consultancy business it can be easy to neglect the correct work/life balance during the busiest periods (in 9 reviews)

RecommendsNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at Mott MacDonald part-time (More than 3 years)
Pros
Interesting projects, technology and friendly co-workers.
Cons
Micro management, internal politics that trickles down and causes a clannish environment, bringing moral down.
Advice to Management
Stop the recent divide and concur policy. Have confidence in the middle management and let them lead to get the job done. You have good people that are dedicated and would do much better if given the chance.

RecommendsNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEOI have been working at Mott MacDonald full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Good work/life balance. Friendly and knowledgable people to learn from. Good place to start a career in engineering.
Cons
Average compensation.
Flow of work is VERY inconsistent. Budgets for projects are also inconsistent, and you might have to ocassionally work overtime for free just to catch the deadline.
Career progress is not very promising. Young engineers seem to be restricted to one group with little say in what projects they want and as a result don't get to learn a lot.
Even though there are lots of offices in the US under the same practice, they don't talk well with each other and don't share the workload/resources well enough (this however seem to be improving).Advice to Management
Focus on training young engineers with interesting, diverse projects. Stop hiring too many senior staff who need to always be put on projects before graduates. Ensure offices and different departments in the US are aware of the capabilities and practices you offer and share work load internally. Please review employee compensation.
