Good and Bad

Pros

Very fun culture. Great social events. SCS is also a highly skilled firm where you will learn a great deal in the time you spend there. I became much better at engineering during my time here.

Cons

My experience: - Generally average to below average compensation. They try to underpay and then promise a large bonus, but this just means your income is conditional and they can push you harder. - Key people leave because they do not have a path to becoming Associates. - Subdivision is the bread and butter of SCS. If you are not in that group you will have significantly less help. I was an engineer but I had to format all my drawings, format my reports, setup CAD drawings etc. A lot of low-level administrative tasks. - Stressful environment. If you do not produce results within budget, you do not keep your job. There is definitely a burnout culture. - No HR team or in-house IT support.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. We are glad to hear that you enjoy our company culture and the opportunities to learn. I'm surprised to hear you didn't feel you received the same amount of help as those who are involved in subdivision work. We are all one team here at SCS and encourage support and mentorship on every level. If you would like to discuss further, please contact me at hr@scsconsultinggroup.com. We hope to work with you for many years to come.

Since you've left the company, we have implemented career paths as part of our Career Actioneering Plan and Performance Assessment (CAPPA).
