Pros

I have no positive memories from working at this company.

Cons

I just have to note that it is embarrassingly obvious to any woman who has ever worked at CTL that the recent review regarding women working in an engineering firm is completely false. This company takes advantage of women. I know several women who have quit CTL (in addition to myself) and we all continue to bear mental scars from working at this company. If you enjoy being manipulated and treated like you're worthless than this is the company for you. Otherwise, ladies please find a job somewhere else!

Typical Bottom of the Barrel Engineering Firm

Pros

Never had a 40 hour work week so time to search for another job was available. All of the non management staff shared the same disdain for the company so it was easy to get along with coworkers. Work was rare and top management profited from the backs of the lower level staff by billing clients project time while they were on extended vacations. Place was like a ghost town most weeks.

Cons

Fraudulent company who pays well below industry standard for employees to do twice the work asked of. Constant turnover and unethical behavior was the norm. Women especially had it rough and were treated sub human (I witnessed this with my own eyes and I am a Man) reports of unethical and harassing behavior were ignored repeatedly.

Pros

Flexible scheduling, Some of the managers are as good as you can get, if you are looking for experience and plan to move on in a few yrs it's a great place. Some of the departments have great managers who will treat you like family.

Cons

Company is on the decline and has been for past 10+ years. The top leadership has become top heavy. Some departments are as good as they get and you will be treated like family. Others are run more like cast systems. If you don't have a PE behind your name your are just a means to an end as far as top management is concerned. Other reviews have mentioned women should beware. I agree with this especially if you are working in the corporate office. Some of their best people have left or have given up. Middle managers are just whipping posts for the lack of leadership from the top. Company is ESOP which is great if you have been there 20+ years, means almost nothing to younger staff( think Pyramid scheme). Pay increases are hard to come by and usually are just cost of living because most of the extra cash is dumped to ESOP. Top share holders get tens of thousands of dollars per year in company stock. If you have been their less than 10 yrs you get a fraction. Remember, if you are interviewing you will be sold sunshine and rainbows. You will be told you will likely get a raise after your probationary period is up. This will only happen if you demand it. I stayed too long, I got some great experience but I would have been much better off taking that experience and leaving after 6 to 8 years.
