      Thank you for sharing your experience at SEH. We’re glad you valued the people you worked with and the flexibility of remote work. We recognize that while remote work offers flexibility, it can sometimes make in person connection more challenging; we offer flexibility in work locations, with 32 offices located near our clients.

      Pros

      Strong culture of employee-ownership. Good people, good employees. Leadership generally does a good job of providing updates on company strategy and financials every quarter.

      Cons

      SEH strongly embraces WFH. This could be a pro or a con depending on how you look at it.

      Pros

      Work life balance Work from anywhere policy

      Cons

      All senior level engineers are absolutely checked out and just coasting until retirement. It's clear everyone has advanced through years with the company and not on merit. The company is incredibly slow to adapt. My first day I showed up to the office, a cubicle farm and was given outdated tech. They still supply wired keyboard and mouse and wired headsets. It was a warning sign of things to come. Saying the office environment is drab is too kind. They still employ full wall cubicles and closed door offices with no windows. Any company even remotely in tune with today's office culture left these behind 10-20 years ago. The work is slow and unrewarding at best. They work on bloated government contacts. I was routinely given 2-4 hours of work and told we have 40-80 hours budgeted so make sure you use it all
