Pros
The company provides a decent starting pay and overtime is guarantee. Expense reports help with drive mileage and partial cell phone bills. Opportunities to change positions (Boston Office) and back fill higher ups due to high turnover. Will pay most tuition if returning to college for a masters.
Cons
401K match is pretty much non-existent. They contribute 1/4th on anything you put in up to 3%. December of 2016 a email was sent out by the CEO telling everyone that there will be a better 401K match starting 2017 but that never happened. There is allot of false promises of this type and its sad that the hardest working ES's are grinding out work at a site, but the account manager is collecting bonuses on revenue increases. Also lets face it, you WILL come in contact with a chemical at some point. Whether its a slight spill pouring off corrosives, or just handling chemicals, at some point you will come in skin contact with something that doesn't feel so good. Every ES and manager who was an ES has at least one story of chemical contact, including myself.Environmental specialists are struggling. There is way too much work for one person but are expected to finish the job anyway. Hiring more stable workers who wont leave after a month is key. Don't waste 3 weeks for on boarding, let them work a week in the field first so that if they leave not much time is wasted. Increase the 401K match like promised, this is a career for a lot of us but other companies of the same time are matching everything up to 6%. Please hurry up on the wasteland website release. The old school program is inaccurate slow and syncing is just ridiculous.
