Worst company ever
prefer not to say (Former Employee), prefer not to say –
Cons: too many to even start
I have worked with this company in the Middle East, the worst ethics ever, Management doesn't know what they are doing, they hire and fire at will before the projects are even won.

No professional development, they assign minial tasks to engineers such as admin and such with no regards of their skills.

Co-workers are great with limited opportunities – more...  of knowledge transfer.

DON'T WORK FOR THIS COMPANY IN THE MIDDLE EAST. – less

Absolute worst company I've worked for. this company has no ethics when it comes to employees or customers.
Aircraft Mechanic (Former Employee), Jacksonville, FL –
Cons: managment is horrible and benefits are bad
Typical day at work is an average 8 hour work day.
Management has no idea what's going on with their business.
Coworkers are good.
Hardest part of the job is dealing with the companies horrible policies.
Best part of the job is going home at the end of the day.

Politics Rule
Project Support Administrator (Former Employee), San Diego, CA –
Pros: flexible work hours
Cons: too much political drama
I was busy and billable all day, every day. I enjoyed helping project managers with tasks they were too busy to complete. My co-workers for the most part were easy to work with, and very intelligent.

What I learned is that even in a large corporation, local management personnel have their favorites, and that politics rule over everything else.

Top heavy company. Lots of opportunity to work on large scale projects.if you are willing to travel
Engineer (Former Employee), New York –
This company is getting too top heavy and senior management has lost touch with what's going on in local offices. Human resource is only interested in protecting management.
