What is Engineering Hell?

Engineering Hell has a goal of being a community driven collection of stories from engineers who have experienced hell in their careers. These stories are meant to be shared with the community to help others avoid the same fate. The goal of Engineering Hell is to provide a platform for engineers to share their stories and learn from each other. We believe that by sharing our experiences, we can help each other grow and become better engineers.

note: There are plenty of engineering "rag" type blogs that just share stories of hell. We want to be different. We want to share the hell, but also share the learning and growth that came from it to help our peers navigate the trip hazards faster in the future.

What kind of engineering do we write about?​

We are looking for stories from engineers in all fields of engineering. Whether you are a software engineer, mechanical engineer, civil engineer, or any other type of engineer, we want to hear from you. We believe that engineering is a diverse field with many different experiences, and we want to capture as many of those experiences as possible.
