      Pros

      Can’t think of any. Disgusting organization that does abysmal work.

      Cons

      Everyone who works here is mean. The reporting is awful. Everything is unorganized. They will make you do repititive, tedious, frivolous, meaningless, pointless work day in and day out with no thanks.

      Pros

      Some nice people who actually want to do sustainability work.

      Cons

      Don’t believe anything they tell you in recruiting process. They will screw you over the first chance they get, just like they do clients. Greenwashing and overinflated client billing. Most unethical place I’ve ever worked.

      Not bad, but they expect too much for too little

      Pros

      ERM has a very strong safety culture and they go out of their way to make sure their staff is safe while at work, especially when on site. Safety training is equally comprehensive. Lots of variety in this line of work. Unlike with other kinds of consulting, you work on multiple projects at the same time, which means there can be lots of variety in the kinds of work you do. Junior staff tends to get good experience early on in their careers if they show that they are ready for it. ERM doesn't limit what you are allowed to do based on your position. Lots of opportunities for work at client facilities or in the field, if that is what you are into. The company has a lot of highly intelligent, hard-working people.

      Cons

      Pay is VERY low for the amount of effort and work that is expected out of you. Health benefits and 401k are ok, PTO is pretty low to start. Management tends to only care about utilization, and they expect you to work overtime to meet utilization goals. They are also reluctant to send you to training because that is time away from billable work. Projects are often underbudgeted so that ERM wins the project, but the result is that you can't charge all the hours you spend working on projects, but management still expects you to bill 40 (or more) hours every week.
