Black & Veatch reviews

RTO has severely changed how I feel about BV and their values. Now that the company is wasting time and money on tracking who is/isn't coming into the office, people are coming in not because they want to, but because they fear they will lose their jobs. We have lost several amazing assets to the company due to RTO and a lack of understanding. HR has been backing employees who have medical issues that prevent them from coming in into a corner, forcing them to quit or come into the office -regardless of the fact that they are completely fulfilling their job requirements. There is a complete lack of trust between leadership and employees, which says a lot since this is an EMPLOYEE owned company. Leadership uses surveys to place a false sense of voice to their employees and uses our opinions to skew results to what they want to see. In the most recent townhall, Mario told us to "forget RTO" and to "move on". The company's culture has gone from something I once valued, to completely falling apart.

I was hired a year ago with the promise of being a remote employee, and the newly-minted CEO is now instituting a major reduction of employee quality of life, including the former Working in New Ways policy that allows flexibility, freedom, and autonomy. The new policy will soon require everyone to report to their closest office within 75 miles, which is much too far to drive, especially for those driving through densely populated cities with horrific traffic. I feel lied to and cheated out of what could have been a long career here, now I have to find a way to spin a year-long stint on my resume to prospective employers who actually value their workforce.
