Date: August 11th, 2017 9:01 PM Author: Wild step-uncle's house alpha Can you tell us your pay and years of experience? Or approximately if you're worried about doobs or whatever.
How many hours per week do you typically work? How hard is it to find a job as a structural engineer? Both in terms of how you'd perceive the market for new graduates right now, and in terms of if you yourself were fired, how long it would take you to find a new job. |
|
Date: August 11th, 2017 9:22 PM Author: aggressive anal multi-billionaire sandwich 15 years. I make an adequate income.
I work 40 hours a week normally. If there is a deadline I work as long as I have to to meet it. You will be paid straight time overtime unless you are management and on a salary. The market is regional and here (Chicago) the market has high demand for structural engineers of all levels, you will find a job. If I were fired I could find a job in Chicagoland pretty easily. |
