A cool small consulting firm - Recensione dipendente - Environmental Scientist presso REPSG

-Interesting and varied work, whether in the office, doing field work, or conducting research -Small and close-knit office and family-like company culture -Plenty of opportunity to cross-train with other departments

-Office location was not the best -A lot of commuting required, resulting in some long days -Not the most diverse workforce, though seems to have gotten better

Exposure to a variety of projects and clients Opportunities to develop technical skills Some colleagues and management staff were supportive and collaborative

Constantly changing management and ongoing restructuring created instability Lack of trust between management and employees Poor handling of employee health issues; significant delays in allowing necessary medical leave Insufficient support and resources for professional growth High turnover rate contributing to a stressful work environment Strange onboarding process; I was given a phone and laptop set up for an older employee without the data wiped, forcing me to use personal accounts for basic communication No real shadowing period or introduction to colleagues; I was immediately put to work Inadequate training due to absent or ineffective project managers Frequently left off important project email chains until the last possible moment Taken off my own projects to work on others without any personal benefit Strange infighting between senior management and constant discussions about previous employees Inappropriate conversations between senior and junior staff Poor internal communication Non-paid overtime is constant Fairly dangerous neighborhood No lunch breaks provided Unsanitary conditions; the restrooms were frequently left in unacceptable states
