Solar Turbines Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"First thing to note is the location is directly next to the airport, downtown, and the bay. The company has a solid teaching program for the young engineers starting their careers and welcomes feedback on what an engineer is interested in learning through their year. As of 2018, they have made a strong push for research into additive technology and further research into combustion systems for power generation."

"A good company to work good pay 401k ok benefits not good"

"Great place to work. Great benefits."

"I worked with Solar for 19 years but was released due to staff reductions."

"I worked at Solar Turbines Inc. for over 19 years I really enjoyed the commitment to customer service and satisfaction."

"Solar Turbines is a great company that builds turbine engine to produce energy for our customer to meet business requirements. This company is rather successful and is strong against economic downturn. All of this success is due to the loyalty and hard work of the employees. The work here isn't bad, but like other companies it is very limited in turns of opportunity to move around and build experience or even move up to management roles. I would say the best thing about working here is the friendly coworkers that I work with everyday. Overall, this company would be a great starting point for a lot of new graduates."

"I've worked for Solar Turbines for 4 years. Great friendly company with an emphasis on customer relations and employee safety."

"A great company that is a worldwide leader in gas and power turbines. They offer great room for growth in your career as well as the training need to achieve your goals."

"Is a great company for every engineer but software. Managers are mechanical without any poor software knowledge."

"Great work culture with a flexible schedule. Co-workers are very friendly and helpful. Able to work with a lot of different engineers and grow your skillset."

"I have been working with Solar Turbines since 2012. Solar Turbines is a strong company with good work values and helps employees to maintain life-work balance and follows the best ethical values. It is located in most of the countries around the world."

"Excellent place to work! Highly recommend!"

"Solar is a good company to work for if you are looking for "stable". There are a lot of very nice people here, and from an engineering perspective some very intelligent people. From the IT perspective however, there is a lot to be desired. The IT org for Solar suffers from stagnation in leadership. Too much process that adds little value, and really very little technical challenge. The room for growth is non-existent as there is too much job security for the non-technical leadership. If you are looking to end your career somewhere cushy, this may be for you. If you are looking to work with good technology and smart innovative people, and be as good as you can be personally, then look elsewhere. This company does not care about its IT services, to make any changes to it."

"I have been at Solar Turbines since September 2012, and overall I like the company and the people I work with on a daily basis. The pay is good, and the benefits are good if you can get hired on fulltime from the temp agency. Which takes me to the biggest negative item I can think of. Solar Turbines will keep people on as temps for 2-4 years, yes... years, before making any kind of decision as to hire them as full-time regular employees or not."

"Solar Turbines is an interesting place to work. There are many positions within the company and the large structure allows for procurement of the right tools to accomplish the job."
