Career Growth Limitations - Recensione dipendente - Engineering Technician presso Geo-Technology Associates

Definitely opportunities to move up if you work hard and get certs

Depends if you like a bit of driving, mile reimbursement makes up for it

• The only real positive is the coworkers — many employees are supportive, knowledgeable, and try to help each other despite the environment

• Flexibility and career advancement are heavily promised during interviews and onboarding but are not delivered in practice • Advancement is not based on leadership ability or performance — employees who generate revenue or have internal connections are prioritized, regardless of management skills • The company lacks true structure — each office operates independently under its partner, creating inconsistency and confusion rather than a unified organization • Leadership lacks professionalism — confidentiality is not consistently respected, and internal gossip about employees occurs • Favoritism is a major issue — hiring, promotions, and opportunities often go to personal connections or individuals brought in from previous companies • New leadership bringing in their own teams creates an unwelcoming and, at times, disrespectful environment toward existing employees • Performance reviews are inconsistent or only conducted for select individuals, leaving many employees without feedback or growth direction • Employees can be terminated without prior warning, feedback, or a fair evaluation process • Promises of career growth are sometimes used to retain employees temporarily, only for them to be replaced, sidelined, or overlooked once the company’s immediate needs are met • Overall lack of accountability in leadership, with little support or clear direction for employees trying to succeed
