Management will use you as scapegoat - Analyst - Management, Non-supervisory REI Systems Employee Review

Many of our Employees experience working at REI as satisfying, challenging and career-advancing. They appreciate the culture of openness and transparency. We provide paid technical training, mobility among projects within the company, and leadership and communication development programs for employees to grow as professionals. We’re sorry that you do not feel you had that same experience. We definitely value and rely upon our employees to advance our clients’ programs. We’re honored to work with clients who are changing the world, and sometimes challenges can arise when there is a lot going on and many facets at play. It’s not always easy to address, and our Mangers continually strive to find solutions to balance project needs, client relationships and employee considerations. However there is never any justification for treating employees, contractors, or clients with anything less than respect and courtesy. Never. We continually work to grow and enhance our working culture by asking employees what they want or need, by sending satisfaction surveys, conducting employee check-ins, and conducting skip 1on1 conversations (an employee’s boss’s boss connects with them) to ensure their voices are heard. Additionally we have an anonymous “Text the Execs” program in which employees can share or alert us of situations that may need addressing in a unattributable way. Many also connect directly (and confidentially) with our on-site Professional and Personal Development Coach to more fully share and understand situations as well as determine the best way to approach the issue. These and other factors ensure Employees feel an atmosphere of trust, transparency, and growth. Employees have voted REI Systems a “Washington Post Top Places to Work” five times. That said, it appears you had a different experience. And to repeat, we do not tolerate disrespect or toxic environments and immediately address issues as we become aware of them. If you would like additional help, please reach out to HR@REISystems.com. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. And while we wish you felt you had a different experience; we will grow stronger because of your input. We wish you the best.
