- All you will do is work and travel. Lots of project engineers are looking for other jobs as am I, stay away unless you like working 60-80 hour weeks. Ask the appropriate and important questions in the job interview phase.
- Little recognition or appreciation from management
- a few incompetent project managers, but most of them are pretty good.
- Work is not very engineering related, mostly technical work and hardware
- Sometimes a day notice to travel out of state
- No time for extra curricular activities, hobbies, and little time for friends
- No incentive to perform well, very small raises IF ANY
- The majority of "local" work consists of traveling an hour to and from the worksite depending on which plant you are going to
