Thank you for your thoughtful review. We're pleased to hear that you've found the working environment friendly and that you've had access to a wide range of learning opportunities and projects. Agile working is something we continue to review, so it's great to know it's making a positive impact. We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding salary, workload, and the effects of structural and management changes. While we strive to offer competitive compensation and a sustainable workload, we recognise that these areas can sometimes fall short of expectations. Organisational changes are often made with long-term improvements in mind. Still, we understand they can create uncertainty, and we’re working to improve how we communicate and support our people through these transitions. Thank you again for sharing your experience; your insights are valuable in helping us continue to grow and improve.

Pros

Niche software dev BU followed through with employment offer after 6 month contract-to-hire period. Provided me FMLA and even additional 2 weeks paid maternity leave without any legal obligation. Hybrid remote/office-based strategy supported work-life balance. Employee-ownership of company strengthened team mentality. Improved my resource management skills, built network via enterprise training sessions, increased GIS and agile methodology domain knowledge, and learned interesting facts about sustainability and construction engineering environmental design dependencies. Also, I felt heard and valued after my project risk reporting was addressed by leadership and a major issue avoided.

Cons

My labor cost became commercially restrictive after leadership changes at a strategic client. I was impacted during an Oct. Reduction in Force post a re-org.
