This company is a sweatshop, with limited direction and mentoring for junior engineers. - Design Engineer Pape-Dawson Employee Review

Pros

There are talented senior level engineers, but they have no time to work with designers.

Cons

The Human Resource department treats employees like dirt. I understand deadlines and efficiency, but when the HR department shows no respect, has no concern for employees, and the senior engineers won't help you design or share information regarding the project, it's hard to be a well-rounded, solid employee.
