1,140 Mechanical Engineer Reviews

"I love the ability to be involved in innovative product development and being able to see the finished product in the market. I do not like the lack of support that is sometimes found when you do not have the adequate tools to do the job well."

"I don't hate anything. The engineering work is always interesting. You have plenty of problems and even more solutions. The funniest part is to find those solutions."

"Mechanical Engineering is the broadest of all engineering fields. In fact, civil engineering, industrial engineering and other branches of engineering have branched from mechanical engineering. Therefore, the ability to cover all grounds and establish an understanding of various principles of engineering is great."

"Mechanical engineering opens up opportunities to work on cutting-edge and important products and technologies in a wide variety of fields. This makes the career very versatile and interesting. You get the opportunity to be creative and solve complex problems with some very smart people. You will always be learning. One downside is that sometimes you will have many simultaneous projects and tight deadlines that are constantly being re-prioritized. Ultimately, however, it is very rewarding."

"I love being a mechanical engineer because designing is my interest. And it is wide, relative to many other engineering fields."

"I love being able to create designs and see them fulfill the measure of their purpose. I enjoy being faced with a challenge and exploring different avenues to overcome it."

"I love the ability to create. Being a creator is fulfilling and enriching to the soul. Only physical impossibilities that stand in the way of something creative can take away from that."

"I love the creativity it gives me but hate the government regulations."

"I love to be a mechanical engineer because it can be fun when you design or invent something that really works to this world."

"I love being able to use my logic and imagination to solve problems. I don't have anything that I hate about being a Mechanical Engineer. I am very proud of it."

"I love the challenges and organization required from being a project engineer. I get the opportunity to work with people and learn from each specific trait across getting my projects completed. The best thing I would say is the negotiations I get to engage in to getting the projects done. What I dislike about being a project manager is the inherent disconnect that comes from being in a big organization. I found an effective way of keeping track between departments to ensure fast track."

"I am a Hands-On Engineer, I came up through the ranks. I was trained to Design to Build, Build to Test. I felt that this was discouraged."

"Great experience, hands on and customer assurance experience along with using engineering skills."

"I love the ability to solve challenging problems by calculations, brainstorming and team effort."
