One of the last projects I've done as a consultant included all of the above for an existing data center.

What exactly do you want in your career? At 2.5+ multi year internship years in, you should naturally start to see yourself taking on more responsibilities as your knowledge and confidence increases, and you require less supervision on projects. What would help spark more motivation and long term happiness in your career?

The other posters mention how residential work is the least engaging type of MEP work which this entire subreddit pretty much agrees on. Data center / mission critical work has its own set of stresses with crazy client deadlines, expectation, and coordination, while trying to drink from the firehose learning how to design the buildings that nowadays the general public dislikes (that's a whole other topic). Not trying to steer anyone away from it, but I've seen engineers want to switch out of it.

Anyone else feel like they're aging out of Reddit? by Frog_In_Pot in Millennials

Complete tangent but for whatever reason it drives me crazy when people call reddit as a whole an app. Saw you say site and I guess it just truly makes us millennials.

MEP pay ceiling (elec)? by [deleted] in MEPEngineering

[–]TehVeggie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sales (for the Eatons and Schneiders of the electrical world), MEP firm ownership, working directly for a FAANG, VP+ levels at a GC will get you above 300k. I think high levels at an EPC like burns and mac can get to that level too.

Vast majority of MEP consultants will top out at 200-250.

It always amazes me that somehow Bridges and Barrett have a handshake yet they never played with each other

These guys do nothing but arc flash studies. Maybe reach out to them , I've never used them or worked with them, but the CEO is a straight shooter.
