The only thing I know about the M and E engineer job is that it doesn't have regular working hours.

Just trying to look for some advice from current M and E engineers on how the industry is like, how the career progression is like for an M and E engineer, how the pay is, whether the irregular working hours occur on a regular basis and etc....
Construction is irregular hours no matter what rank, this one cannot escape. In terms of career progression, you need to move into project management or business development.

Otherwise as a field engineer you will never progress beyond 15k even if work for more than 10 years.
