Great engineering resources... not the best utilization
Great engineering resources... not the best utilization
- Amazing lab/component-development and testing capabilities.
- Direct access to manufacturing and repair.
- Largest installed fleet of gas turbines.
- Too many people, leading to too much politics.
- Very limited room for creativity due to management constraints and work being over-divided among people.
- Very poor management; more textbook and hypocritical.
- Be open to feedback.
- A big reward for engineers is mastering the subject and getting a sense of ownership and belonging to a product. Monetary rewards only dilute motivation.
- There is very limited room for our creativity. There are too many people and too little work.
- There is an appearance of empire building and boss-pleasing.
- Projects change too often, and there is hardly any constancy before teams and projects change.
