Engineered flooring is almost always a "floating" floor, so hopefully no glue underneath - probably just flooring and maybe a pad. Removal and disposal cost around $0.50-0.75/SF most likely - particularly if done by people doing the new flooring, as they tend to give a pretty cheap removal rate if getting the reflooring part of the job too. Stand-alone removal only maybe nearer $0.75-1/SF by a flooring company, the above rate by Handyman.
Prepping the concrete depends on what is going on top of it - probably nothing needed except drying out for laminate or tongue and groove or snap flooring unless significantly rough or out of level, likely $0.50-1.00/SF range if clean (no glue) but needs removal of the smooth trowel surfacing for laying tile or stone, about 1/4-1/2 that to roughen the surface for glue-down flooring like linoleum/sheet vinyl. If very rough or uneven or lots of old glue or other adhesive on it, can run up to more like $1-2/SF for levelling and prep.
