662 Engineering Manager Reviews

"I love having the ability to influence the direction of a product development and participating in helping a strong company become stronger. I also love mentoring designers and helping them refine strong skills. To be honest I am an engineer before I am a manager. Consequently, I have to work extra hard at the people skills side of things and being a cheerleader when things are tough."

"This was a new role for this product line."

"I love resolving problems, designing solutions and the thrill of successful product launches. I dislike having to right size and adjust staff to economic situations by layoff or job elimination"

"I love the ability to positively impact the outcome of projects and the development of my team. I hate working in a company that started shrinking in 2008, and is now 'managing our attrition rate' to the extent that we will soon be forcing 'average' workers out."

"Loved working and developing my direct reports. Hated the lack of confidence that upper management had for the ability of the professionals."

"The main thing to be aware of as any manager in IT support and design is that there is a high degree of reliance on support and knowledge of items that may be well outside of your expertise. Being able to be nimble in learning technology quickly is the key to success."

"New challenges and potential for career and personal development."

"Ability to make independent decisions, great team atmosphere, management willingness to help you get the job done is what I loved the most."

"I love and enjoy my job because every day I learn about different customers and needs."

"We are paid to think is the statement of my present supervisor and I believe it is very true. I enjoy being a Engineering Manager, because I am in charge with giving the directions, making the strategy of the projects I take part."

"Freedom to make decisions. The time constraint involved in doing projects."

"Love the engineering opportunities for improvement, hate the regulatory requirements and restrictions for changes and improvements."

"Every Project is like a son, all the process from the birth of project, the suffering for the normal issues and difficulties during the deployment until the project's delivery is very exiting"

"I love engineering management as a career and life's work. The intricate processes and personnel interactions along with goal setting, work planning, and tracking work activities keeps the juices flowing."
