As a former employee at Composite Engineering (also known as CEI) I saw it all. CEi is a Government Contractor, and let me tell you if the Government knew what I know they would not be in business very long! It's a private company owned by Mike and Amy Fournier. And let me tell you these two especially Amy Fournier ("the president") is a tyrant. Beware; do not work for this company! They are constantly losing staff, firing people for no reason at all, and have Managers in key position that are no where near qualified. They are constantly advertising for positions, because they can not hold on to anyone.
My first day of employment with CEi they fired 15 people in one day. That's what they call a "lay-off". Yet a week later they promote other staff to replace them. What kind of company fires 15 people, call it a lay-off, and them replaced them all by promoting people into their position? They recently hired a VP of Supply Chain only to let him go 2 months later. They hire HR staff; and yet can not keep them. Their HR Dept is such a joke. They have the HR manager Lisa in place running a staff she can never keep. Also running a staff that can't stand her. Lisa is one of the many managers who is in her position with out any degree or real experience. The whole company is a joke. Please beware that the things I have said are not even a fraction of the craziness that goes on at this joke of a Company. Composite Engineering also known as CEi is one of the Shadiest companies here is Sacramento. Also anyone thinking about taking a management position with them BEWARE!
As a Manager you ought to be able to make decisions without any approval right? NOT AT CEI. Even to purchase a new chair for your office you need approval from the President Amy. As a "Manager" you are not able to make decisions what so ever. They also have absolutely no women as part of their Management team which is really sad. I've departed now from CEi, and I want all to know that this is not the company to work for. If you want stability, if you want growth, if you want to work in a fair and stable environment this company is not the place for you. And to the current 210 revolving employees still working at Composite Engineering RUN, RUN as fast as you can!!
