Pros
- Estimators and shop floor people are the only people that give you the time of day / give you work cause project engineers aren't bothered to.
Cons
- Project Engineers don't train you - "after this project" excuses - Juniors get given Grunt work, paint orders, working shop floor, doing GAs for the estimators. No real project engineering work - Onboarded using an email from two previous juniors used since they weren't bothered to even make a work email for new juniors - Mocking comments as a junior saying you won't be around for long given the previous two juniors didn't. - Ongoing hiring activity during early tenure raised concerns about role stability - Communication between project engineers at times felt more adversarial than cooperative
