The right tools
On rollover: We put the tools in place to help our employees succeed as they climb the career ladder. Each member of our staff undergoes a comprehensive annual review with the Principal Engineers to measure performance, to discuss strengths and areas for improvement, as well as to set short and long term goals. There are also quarterly reviews to ensure that milestones are reached, and employees receive regular feedback.
On-the-job training
On rollover: Davenport also recognizes the value of continued learning and training on the job. Our junior engineers have the opportunity to work on projects under the mentorship of more senior staff. In addition, our senior engineers are often asked to provide peer reviews and provide input on a variety of new projects. This allows our staff to learn both vertically and laterally. As a group, there are regular meetings and brown bags where staff members discuss environmental topics, new and emerging regulations, industry specific news and updates from government agencies. Individual training plans are also in place.
Ethical standards
On rollover: At Davenport Engineering, we maintain strong professional and ethical standards. We work hard, yet at the same time we maintain a flexible and open culture. We have an open door policy in place where each employee has the opportunity to be heard. We also engage in activities such as company outings, and team-building events to foster a unique sense of professional camaraderie.
“Davenport hires quality people. When I go to most companies, it’s a generic person, but at Davenport, I get smart people who learn quickly. The whole company is very organized.”
