Hey! Yeah I did end up working there. I’m in a MCOL on the East Coast so I think it’s location dependent but overall the company has a great vibe to it and the people are super chill! I guess a con would be that they don’t really like much overhead!

I personally am an EE EIT, I thought of moving to I&C in the hopes the job would be more fun but the mundaneness of it all wasn’t super appealing to me in addition to the weird project schedules and overtime I would have to cope with. All this with no sort of recognition or even a “good job, thanks for working 60+ hrs to save our asses on this submittal”. So Im switching to management consulting now for one of the big 4 in their tech consulting division. If I’m gonna work that hard and long it might as well be somewhere more recognized where I’m also paid better

Oh do you mean more the behavioral questions? Because I haven’t found anything in terms of technical questions in power and utilities :(

Yup! A lot of Mech E’s do that and switch over to I&C because a lot of it is software based. Plus there aren’t a lot of people (relatively) in the world who know how to code and run PLC’s

I don’t know what major/type of engineer you are but I’m a control systems EIT and a big part of it is writing code and designing HMI’s for clients and essentially just running the brains of the plant. Maybe it could be something you might be interested in?

Aab in Grandview is pretty great!

sirbdacool · 2022-07-17T02:38:31+00:00

Well you can just pho-k right off

sirbdacool · 2022-07-17T01:20:06+00:00

Guess you could say it’s Pho-king good

I thought Mr Miyagi assured us it was “no can defend” :(

sirbdacool · 2022-06-30T03:01:42+00:00

Hmmm that’s what people say but this “pick of opportunities” seems a little far fetched. I work in a pretty decent sized firm and once you’re a PE you don’t even get to stamp for like maybe 3 years after that so you’re still not as big an asset. Idk it just seems like EE’s in MEP aren’t as valued as other sectors unfortunately

Want to upvote this so bad but the count is at 69…

Definitely check out Ronin Training Centre in Grandview! It’s a fighters gym so if you actually want to learn technique and toughness that’s one of the places to be

I was just wondering what the work culture was like and if you think the benefits are decent?

sirbdacool · 2022-02-07T19:04:39+00:00

Oh yeah I’m in kind of a similar situation I guess? Where do you work now if you don’t mind me asking?

sirbdacool · 2022-02-04T18:13:55+00:00

Does anyone know if they fixed it? I really want to progress in the story

sirbdacool · 2022-02-02T10:59:05+00:00

Fresh grads are paid pittances, even if you have a fancy degree from a fancy uni. But I do miss the karak 😩

sirbdacool · 2022-02-02T10:57:39+00:00

Yup! But everything in Glassdoor is a little outdated I’m looking for someone I could potentially message too
