Field Engineer Reviews
What is it like working as a Field Engineer?
August 2021
Field Engineer in Toledo:
Look, they're a huge company and it feels like you are a faceless name. The pay was good but you were expected to work long hours for it. Really nice people though where I worked which was in Fed way at the estimating office and the Vancouver office for Bridge and Marine.

July 2021
Hydraulics Engineer.
Field Engineer in Surat:

February 2021
Difficult place for minorities and engineers starting out.
Field Engineer in St. Petersburg:
Pros: Type of work is exciting and a great learning opportunity
Cons: It's a white male dominated company. Who you go fishing with and smoke cigars with matters more than merit and hard work.
December 2020
Paid less than newer employees, but supervisors make an effort to take care of their own employees at thier offices.
Field Engineer in Waukesha:
Pros: I get to learn new techniques, although they are often self-taught. Supervisors try their best to help out with the questions you have in the field. Schedules are made to best distribute the work during slow weeks.
Cons: I have been left in situations where I cannot confidently give a contractor information they seek while in the field.
I have been overwhelmed by the amount of work I am expected to do in and out of the field while understaffed.
My pay is now less than those who were hired after myself. My pay has not risen even though my office heavily requires my background in lab work and would not be able to get proctors, soil gradations, and other geotechnical lab procedures done. I am also one of the few who understand soil classification.
December 2020
Huge responsibility but definitely rewarding.
Field Engineer in La Vergne:
Pros: More family oriented than any other company I’ve ever worked for.
Cons: Impossible to get a straight answer with some people over some subjects.
October 2020
Too much work, too few people.
Field Engineer in Waukesha:
Pros: Supervisors are great.
Cons: Never seem to have enough experienced people to cover jobs. Do not get enough experience to confidently do the jobs.
