Pros

Fantastic line manager Very good systems in place for support Given a lot of responsibility and ownership quickly Varied training opportunities Team leader had a lot of time and trust for graduates.

Cons

Not much variety of work, often end up stuck on one project, or end up with a 'specialism' you can't shake Due to the merge the process for promotions and reviews was changed without training for line managers or info for employees. Very unclear. This may have changed. A lot of junior staff are often lumped with admin tasks such as formatting documents for senior staff with a lack of basic IT skills. PGN is great but often a way for senior management to get graduates to do extra work for no recognition or reward.

Pros

Great team culture, supportive colleagues, and opportunities to learn and grow. I gained valuable experience across project coordination, operations, and reporting.

Cons

PTO and sick time are combined into a single accrual bank, which may not align with every employee’s preferences. Benefits are generally competitive, though the 401(k) match could be stronger.

Pros

With over 30 years in the engineering industry, I can say without hesitation that this is the most employee-attentive firm I have ever had the privilege of working for. What sets this organization apart is its commitment to staying at the forefront of the industry — not just technologically, but in how it values and invests in its people. The collective expertise of thousands of dedicated professionals here doesn't just benefit the company; it makes a meaningful impact on the world, and that sense of purpose has genuinely reignited my passion for engineering. The opportunities for growth are both vast and real. Across the firm's many initiatives, there is something for everyone who comes to work curious, motivated, and eager to contribute. This is not a place where ambition goes unnoticed. After more than three decades in this field, I have found a place I am proud to be part of — and one I hope to remain a part of for many years to come. If you are considering joining this team, I wholeheartedly encourage you to take that step.

Cons

If I have to mention a con, it would be monetary compensation, but who doesn't want more money. I took a paycut to join this firm and the amount of time I am investing, could be worth more than my current salary warrants.
