What is the Actual Job Like?
Im a highschool junior and im heavily intrested in what I think this feild looks like. Im specifically intrested in reclamation and ecological engineering. I live in montana, and want to help the environment and make decent money. Id also like to spend time in places like the forest and mountains while I work but ive come to notice that most jobs have a direct ratio of office time to money made. From what I can tell id have heavy feild work in the first 4 years as I work to get my license. After this id go to a more half n half schedule leaning towards the office. When id become a senior engineer id have alot less time in the feild but should be making up to around 150k.
Bassically what does the field work and time actually look like?
is this an enjoyable job?
Is the money expectation reasonable?
Does anyone have experience from my state?
Is there a different or similar feild more towards what im looking for?
