Northrop Consulting Engineers Reviews

I would say once you have enough experience and skills then you definitely can have the promotion. The promotion possibilities in our company is large.

Northrop places a lot of importance on sustainability and inclusion. In my brief time at the company so far I have already participated in several company conferences on sustainable design and watched a presentation from an indigenous artist during NAIDOC week.

I feel as though it is a very level playing field at Northrop - everyone treats you with the same respect, whether you are a undergrad or a principle (owner) this makes everyone extremely approachable when asking for help

The company systemically promotes flexibility and inclusion, allowing remote work (depending on the context) to retain quality employees, WFH arrangements and reduced workload for parents to name a few benefits. This means I work with a great bunch of people from diverse backgrounds!

I work under supervision of well experienced mentors and team members who are ready to provide support with a just a tap on the shoulder. I'm expected being trained on how to act as a professional. I'm always enough to take on a different roles from design to site inspections.

very accessible throughout the day and always willing to talk to you about project issues or questions. Regular mentor/manager catch ups are done to ensure there is a chance for feedback and communication

Very modern and semi open plan. There are quiet area and meeting rooms to escape to if need be. There are kitchenettes and coffee facilities as well. Dress code is good casual, some engineers dress up more formally, other down and keep it casual

The interview process consisted of a first and second interview with senior members of staff. The interviews involved a range of technical and teamwork based questions and scenarios that required problem solving. There was also opportunity for me to talk about my interests and also to ask questions about the company and the work that is done.

My salary is appropriate for a graduate engineer with no experience. Job comes with super and leave loading. Northrop does pay overtime which helps increase this

Northrop has a great interest with further developing the skills and expertise of their employees. Personally I feel this is the most valuable thing that Northrop has to offer over other consultant engineering firms

I work 7.5 hours a day which is manageable. I haven't required much flexibility in hours but from what I've seen with other co-workers the company is very accommodation for people who need to work flexible hours.

As engineers, we have committed to a climate action plan where all our projects will be carbon neutral by 2030. We have climate action seminars and workshops to improve our thinking and decision making with having carbon neutrality high on the priority list
