Pros

-Great advancement opportunities for entry level employees -leadership at the technical level is excellent -Great PTO policy -I have worked with several offices and I have found the vast majority of employees to be hardworking competent and good people -The one to two star reviews are unfair because they really are just criticizing the nature of the industry, which Montrose has no control over. In order to be cost competitive employees will have to work long hours on some occasions. I have spoken with other companies, and the pay is competitive within the industry.

Cons

-not much advancement opportunities for mid-level employees -Jobs with long hours are doable but there cant be too many back to back days and back to back weeks -Capitol spending seems low in a way that is unsustainable. Source testing equipment doesn't last forever. -The five star reviews are unrealistic. Very few companies are perfect but anybody who gives the company five stars doesn't really have their finger on the pulse of the company so to speak.

Pros

Company is highly adaptable. Maintains agility even though the company large. Upper management supports and encourages employee involvement.

Cons

Being a publicly traded company hinders some type of growth due to burdensome overhead.

Pros

Prior to our company's acquisition with MEG/Onterris, the company had a strong culture, supportive leadership, and employees who genuinely cared about one another and the success of the business.

Cons

If your company has been acquired, pay close attention to employee reviews and take them seriously. I did, and many of the concerns raised turned out to be accurate. Employees were repeatedly assured that the acquisition would create new opportunities and that jobs were secure. In my experience, that was not the reality. Long-tenured employees were gradually pushed out while similar positions were later reposted with modified titles or responsibilities. The former ownership ultimately lost control of decisions despite assurances that little would change. Employees with years of institutional knowledge spent years implementing new procedures, documenting procedures, learning the new system, and navigating disorganized Workday implementations with minimal support. Much of the guidance consisted of being directed to read instructions on the intranet. If you are in a finance position they will let you go! They will tell you they want it all centralized in Arkansas but that's not true, there are plenty of people working remote but you will be pushed out no matter how long you've been with your company. This not only affected me but our entire team was wiped out. They didn't give us a heads up in advance to look for anything for 2 years we were told everyone was safe and I believed them. Keep an eye out for the constant restructuring of upper management as well.

Thank you for a decade of contribution, and for sharing this so candidly. Change of this scale asks a lot of trust from employees, and we recognize that. We take feedback like yours seriously as we work to communicate more clearly through transitions and support the people navigating them. We'd genuinely value hearing more directly please contact our HR team at HRCorp@onterris.com so we can listen fully. Kevin Gill, SVP, HR
