diversity, hours and dress code were better than most companies.
Corporate culture was typical of a large company and the engineering
groups at Corp 1 headquarters were aloof, unreliable and difficult to
contact and work with. I was a test engineer and frequently got either
no response from the corp. engineering groups and got the run around.
Very, very few engineers in the groups were of any value to contribute
to solving problems they created nor would they follow through on the
simplest of requests for information.
Regarding advancement, I was overlooked or ignored entirely by internal
job requesters, not the HR people. It is my opinion that my supervisor
at Corp III Test eng. was preventing me from moving up to a permanent
position to keep me in his group as an economical alternative to not
being able to hire people. I was directly overlooked for the Position
of Wind Tunnel Test Engineer to operate the tunnel eventhough I was
involved in nearly every aspect of the functionality of the tunnel
including screens, honeycomb, Modeling, motors and pitch actuators, and
writing the software to control the fans, pitch and data acquisition.
I was not even interviewed even though I applied according to
freightliner regs. I wanted and needed a full time position with
Freightliner for better benefits.
