Now, I don’t know if recruiting costs change later in the game (I didn’t get too far yet), but when I visited my Rebel HQ, I was offered an Engineer for around 180 supplies. So effectively you only get 1.4 engineers. Of those two bonus engineers, 1 is most likely staffing a Power Relay, giving +5 (but since the WS uses up 3 already, you only really get 40% of it). Two bonus Engineers (well 4 gremlins but it needs 2 actual engineers, so +2)

It uses up a valuable spot on the Avenger, which I could have filled with something else without excavating the 3rd/4th level first.

It seems to cost 40 or 75 supplies for the upgraded one per month (I’m not sure which).

It costs 225 Supplies to build and upgrade and uses 3 power.

Which can mess up your plans for what you need to build now.

It requires very strict base layout, since you need a WS in the middle and 4 Engineer-using facilities around it.
