Pros

Leave to go home after a shift, anytime off even if it's for having a tooth pulled

Cons

Untrustworthy, sneaky, not transparent to workers, under paid and over worked. Training programs is useless.

Pros

Being in the renewable energy space is incredibly motivating, and it gives real purpose to the work we do every day. The team atmosphere at Enviva is another major plus. There’s a strong sense of collaboration, mutual respect, and shared goals across the organization. People are genuinely supportive of one another, and that creates a work environment that’s both energizing and inclusive.

Cons

Enviva has a fast-paced work environment. Things can move quickly, and priorities may shift with little notice. While this can be exciting especially with a new facility in Epes coming along, it does require a high level of adaptability, time management, and resilience. I also wish the company placed more of an emphasis on diversity and inclusion, but I understand that this is case by case as Enviva has multiple locations.

Pros

- A mission you can stand behind. - Fair pay within market range. - Colleagues that care about the work they do. - Down to earth leadership, approachable and kind. - Investors that are involved in the day-to-day operations of the company and who make it a point to learn about the people.

Cons

There's still some work to be done. Progress isn't made overnight, but I feel confident that we will get there.
