Pros

Decent benefits, office location is great.

Cons

This company is absolutely useless. Their management is so terrible that they are willing to let go of their good employees, because they are too dumb to get their heads out of their behinds. It's absolutely awful. Working for this company is a waste of time. They truly need to clean house, starting at the top. Pathetic, inefficient, and all around clueless. Senior management are the biggest culprits in this entire hot mess.

Pros

- Convenient location to the metro - Challenging work - Great lunch options in the area - Decent benefits But hey, if you work in the DC metro area, none of these things are special

Cons

It's the world's greatest "show" on earth ladies and gents. The circus never retired. You can now catch a live performance daily at Enviva every Monday through Friday. Grab your tickets, your popcorn, your cotton candy and come to be entertained.

Pros

I want to point out that this review has everything to do with my own personal experience. While I think this company has a lot to work on (it's still relatively young), there are definitely some positives to working there as well. I had the opportunity to work with some amazing leaders and co-workers. There are some brilliant minds at Enviva, and I was lucky to have learned so much in the amount of time I worked there. Like mostly everyone else said, they have a great snack selection in the office. There are plenty of good restaurants / takeout options that are close by. The metro stop is just a couple minute walk up the street.

Cons

Communication between departments / teams is sometimes lacking. There isn't much assistance when it comes to on-boarding and training, but I know that is one thing they are focusing on going forward. High turnover that causes people to be overworked, and there isn't much work-life balance (in some departments). For me personally, there were some weeks where I felt like I couldn't catch up, but others were more manageable. It's a younger company, and longer hours come with the territory. My managers knew when I was stressed and had a lot on my plate, but they recognized my hard work, which could be lacking in other departments.
