Is this your company?

Coffman Engineers, great place to start and grow, but probably not a company to stay at long term (20+ years) - Corrosion Control Engineer Coffman Engineers Employee Review

Pros

Good culture, pay is okay. They hire high quality people. Work hard, play hard lifestyle. A lot of opportunity to travel. For a young engineer pay starts low, but ramps up.

Cons

Turn over rate. Burn out. Undervaluing young engineers. Constantly understaffed. Structure of progression is convoluted. Field work is heavy and required. Project managers and Principal Engineers have to work long shifts in the field just like the technicians. This shoots down the outlook a young engineer might have to work hard in the field early in their career for the hopes of a more office based job later on.

Coffman Engineers Response

We are committed to hiring quality people to protect the culture. And in this current employment climate, finding people is a challenge. This is especially true in Corrosion. Our commitment to quality deliverables is part of the reason that our senior staff spend time in the field. Training and mentoring happen in the field where the work is being done. Still, your feedback about finding more talent, clarifying the progression path, and creating balance is noteworthy. Recruit your friends! Dave Ruff - CEO

Pros

Awesome work culture. They are big on getting your work done rather than needing to stay in office longer than necessary. I also got a lot of hands on experience.

Cons

Hiring process is a little late in the year ~April for students trying to get internships.
