Pros

The project managers at EEI are excellent - very professional, respectful, competent, and efficient. The pay rate is good for contractors. The ability to do some projects from home is also great.

Cons

EEI does not pay its contractors in anything like a timely fashion. Upon starting, one is told that he or she will be paid within 30 days of completing an assignment, but this is totally false. One must wait well over six months to receive payment for completed jobs. I know other contractors, who have since stopped working for EEI as I have, who have outstanding payments from over one year ago due to them. Contacting Senior Management is not allowed. Calls are screened and phone calls and emails never receive replies. I finally stopped doing work for them this year, and I am still owed over one thousand dollars for work performed well over 8 months ago. I still haven't heard from anyone in Senior Management.

A grossly flawed business plan

Pros

Skilled staff, decent equipment and software, competent managers who know the processes that they are overseeing, generous time-off for actual staff (sorry contractors!)

Cons

Regular staff being forced into contract positions and then pushed into bidding against each other over jobs -- a move made to save money on benefits and staff down-time... but the biggest issue at the company is the GROSSLY imbalanced ratio between producers (people making the actual products) and upper level managers... there are easily 3 managers for every worker and it's a seriously broken business model

Pros

At one time, this company was a premium organization. Contractors traveled from all around the country to work for this company. That was years ago, however.

Cons

In recent years, they have taken on the practice of NOT paying their contractors. Colleagues have outstanding invoices dating back over 12 months. Zero cooperation from management in resolving these issues, and they are far from truthful in dealing with these serious issues. Many contractors, me included, have had to take legal action to get paid for services rendered.
