Pros
Most of the people are really nice to work with, especially in the lower management and the operators. Salary and benefits are good. I learned a lot, in particular about people.
Cons
The headquarter management is totally incompetent. Budget decisions are erratic. They spend big $$ for travel and living expenses of the senior management while there is no such thing like a shower on a site that works for workers that handle 8 hr/day organic waste. The company has a technology to sell but no engineers on board. Instead, they rather rely on highly paid consultants from outside that do not have much clue either. Typically, those consultants come with lofty ideas but leave/are let go a couple of months later leaving a mess behind which need to be cleaned up by the people on the ground. With their environmental compliance, they are often on the border of legality. HR wise, the middle management in BC is a revolving door. Most people in the middle management, although dedicated and knowledgeable, are laid off again or leave after 1 - 2 years. I saw many tears in this company! Then, those employees are replaced by new, enthusiastically advertised people which turn out to be even less competent than the ones they just fired. At the same time, they stick to incompetent slackers and con artists for years before they notice the problem.
