Pros

Punching out everyday. The social committee, they put on good free lunches once every month. Other than that, there's not much I can say.

Cons

Here we go, where do I start? Company is extremely mismanaged. The amount of micro-managing from each so-called manager is unfathomable. Very uncomfortable work environment. Co-workers are rude and disrespectful. They don't acknowledge you whatsoever. It's like a high school clique in which they don't want to let you in. Working at this place for the amount of time I did was a complete waste of time for me and my career.

Pros

Great place to get experience. Lots of diversified work Work available both locally and internationally Some good people with good experience that are willing to share Not a lot of micromanaging, if you can prove yourself you are trusted to get your work done When you are starting out they give good pay increases if you perform well If you are a good worker you'll have good job security here. Benefits are pretty good. In my experience, pretty fair/ethical place. Especially when compared to a lot of other consulting engineering firms Senior Management at the office level is good.

Cons

Underpay their engineers/techonogists that have been there a while Overload/Overwork their employees. Overtime is expected, Work/life balance is up to the employee to fight for. Most places you get sent to for work aren't that exciting(should be expected with the job though) No floating here, if you can't/won't work hard and produce, you'll get cut eventually. Lower level management is hit and miss, Management outside the office only cares about the bottom line.

Pros

The employees working there are amazing and fun to work with, but unfortunately no one is happy...sad vibe.

Cons

Andritz hydro Canada is a profit driven company run by a dictator, where employees are scared all the time and under lots of pressure. There is no company culture. In order for you to be valued and possibly appreciated, you have to be a yes man/woman and by working as a slave....you will even get yelled at and treated like an incompetent if you oppose management view. If you are in execution, you got a bonus plan, if you are in sales you don't. Offices look like a 1980 set-up. Conclusion: don't apply there and look for a job somewhere else!!!!! where the culture is all about: 1) their employees 2) customer-focus 3) management are leaders and not bosses.
