      Was an excellent place to work before ERM bought out OASIS Environmental.

      Pros

      Close-knit office, good place to gain great amount of experience.

      Cons

      ERM took over and got rid of smaller contracts. Mass exodus of employees made the office experience less rewarding and fulfilling professionally. Hired too many upper management personnel to help win large contracts, but actually lost a great deal of work. Management couldn't keep employees busy with 40 hours/week, so started asking people to begin taking personnel time off. Not good.

      Pros

      Sometimes bring in interesting projects Employees range from (a few) talented individuals to incompetent Varied experiences, alot of inconsistency across regions, offices...etc.- for me some positives some of my colleagues had much worse experiences others were better off Some good people.. for consultants with less than 10 years it is a good place to get foot in the door and be thrown in the deep end to learn on your own but not a place to stay or progress

      Cons

      Salary is way below industry/competitors Poor leadership, alot of mismanagement Alot of politics especially partner level (this affects every one further down the chain) Attempt to show that there is a flat structure when in fact it is overly bureaucratic Alot of inconsistencies re-promotions, salaries, allocation of project work...The company does not have consistent processes and systems across offices. Attempts to correct this seem to make things worse rather than better! Generally overrated and does not live up to its 'aims/ambitions' (e.g. The world’s leading sustainability consultancy or more specific to me: top global risk consultancy...etc.) Management claim the increased rates are because ERM is as good as the market's best (e.g. for tech safety/risk: DNV) or better than it's competitors, which is fundamentally untrue...

      Great people, but zero incentive and poor salary

      Pros

      - The people (party due to the inevitable Stockholm syndrome) - Great projects - Varied role

      Cons

      - Poor pay - Poor prospects - Micromanagement - Bureaucracy - Blame culture - No actual love for the environment - all about the bottom line - Outdated - Zero inegrity - A tendency for management to put their fingers in their ears and sing whenever you raise concerns.
