    What engineers don’t like When it comes to annoying issues, engineers seem to share many complaints with nonengineering professionals and workers.
    The most common of these is poor compensation (24%) and long hours (17%), not enough people to get the job done (38%), lack of management support (23%), and no potential for advancement (25%). Respondents didn’t have many engineering- specific gripes.
    looks is definitely true.
    I feel the biggest incentive for engineers at their workplace should be creative competition and not high-pay. But alas!
