High Expectations - Technician MBESI Employee Review

This company has a great reputation in town. They've been in business a very long time and have many big demanding clients. Employees are expected to know their job and get things done without being babysat. Everyone is friendly and gets along well for the most part. Good pay and benefits when compared to other companies of the same size. I got about five weeks of paid time off my first year and was paid for the overtime I put in even though I am salaried. Nice bonus at the end of the year and a chance to buy into the company with stock options.

No training. Everybody is very busy and there is no one dedicated to training new employees, but I always feel I can go to my boss if I need help. No tolerance for mistakes. There's a lot of pressure to put out PERFECT projects. Be prepared to work hard (this is not a government job if you know what I mean)

the checks cleared! and about it. insurance was great

The president had a stroke at the end of the year 2016 so it's probably on the downward slide for the company. Management always is very angry, there has to be a "whipping boy" at all times in the office. One of them regularly fumes and screams about the "stupid" clients while another one internalizes his anger and doesn't let anyone do any real work on his projects. Their designs are really sketchy and they are unwilling to stand up for their employees. Their idea of teaching consists of standing behind you and yelling at you about how to use autocad to draw a simple line, or telling you what needs to be done on a project one day and changing it the next without telling you then yelling at you because you can't read minds. They are unwilling to promote or give raises, I've been a victim of this but also seen very capable people become a P.E. only to get offered a very small raise to which they just leave the company. Other companies in the multi tenant building express heavily racist and sexist views out in the open. This is a sinking ship and you should look elsewhere.
