Horrible experience, poor management - Inspector Salem Engineering Group Employee Review

Pros

Easy jobs, no experience required, management and engineer doesn’t care about honest work, no oversight of work performed, engineer and project managers just make up reports and data

Cons

Poor management with no experience. No prevailing wage, no overtime, no training, no bonuses or raises, poor morale and lots of politics and nepotism. Office manager is a secretary who yells and fights with entire staff, drinks on the job and brings down entire office. Miserable environment with people leaving every month. Field staff encouraged to cheat and deceive clients. Lab is slow and inefficient with no experience and outdated equipment. New inspectors sit at home and only work half days

Pros

Manager I had was great, not always in the office but had good communication. They give you $1 raise for each cert you get.

Cons

There wasn't always work. So low hours. They would award work to field engineers in Fresno for work that was being done in Rancho's very own backyard while I was 100% available. Got switch to soils tech which I never signed up for. Little space to grow, will be kept in the field. Also you get paid way below market, at the time I was being paid $2 more than min wage. Also saw one of the department heads cuss out a senior engineer. Toxic work environment.
