Pros

You introduced me to my next employer and I got a huge raise when I left you. Thank you!

Cons

Where to start. They do not promote from within, they expect you the employee to pay for items needed to do your job, and then they will reimburse you. But sometimes they forget to pay you. Upper management does not pay attention to your needs and the needs of the team. They do not match your 401k but rather offer you stock that takes 3 years to mature so there is always a carrot dangling in front of your face. Health benefits are expensive. They throw people at a problem regardless of weather or not they have the right skill set. There are no bonuses. If you are a proud NV5 employee, you still would have to buy NV5 garb from the company store that stuff is not given to you. Lack of leadership, lack of leadership, lack of leadership. Pay raises are typically 1-2% so be happy!!!

Pros

The office staff cares about employees, the staff is very caring about eachother, lots of after-work activities, good and honest work, managers are attentive to needs, and there are plenty of opportunities to move up the ladder.

Cons

Sometimes I'd rather be at work than at home.

Pros

Work from home freedom Boss is very communicative

Cons

They rely on ghost writing too much instead of having the inspectors write their own reports. They hire very very poor subcontractors to do inspections that give very bad info and take poor photos. No breaks from one report to the other. The report review also needs help... lots of errors in prior reports. Constantly overloaded fixing everyone's mistakes. Lazy coworkers. Lots of late late nights working.
