Pros

The positive of this organization is the talent that is housed in the staff. Also great PTO...when you can use it.

Cons

- Hardworkers are overlooked at Invenergy; advancement based on who you know versus output. - Turnover isn't uncommon within the firm due to limited appreciation for the talented staff. There have also been on the spot dismissals within the past year with no reasonable (aka do not worship management). - Speaking up against management on workload, favoritism, lack of development, or speak poorly of management in general you will have a target on your back and will likely mysteriously "quit" within the next 6 months. - Assignments very manual and time consuming and does not utilize its workforce as a lot of the work can be just data entry and frankly not challenging. - Very toxic culture - Extremely political and cliquey environment. - Huge double standard between management and staff, if staff does not meet deadlines they are scrutinized by management however if management do not meet deadlines any excuse is viable. - Meeting heavy where tons of meetings are scheduled but nothing is ever accomplished. My biggest complaint is that staff needs to constantly follow up with their manager on how to manage their team, in a way felt like you were chaperoning your own boss, Educating management on how to allocate work, how to manage, & how boost team camaraderie represented a very "green" & inexperienced leadership at Invenergy.

Pros

- Interesting industry. Learned a good amount - Met some smart, hardworking people - Decent happy hours outside of work - Decent Comp and benefits (Good bonus and excellent # of PTO days to make up for slightly lower than market salary),

Cons

- Very political and toxic culture - VERY cliquey- You're either in the "in" group or the "out" group - Very heavy work load, especially in Accounting and Portfolio Finance (Some due to turnover, some due to culture of "get everything 100% right" even if it's not material to do so...spending an hour to find $75 out of a million is not a good use of time) - Overall attitude of "That's not my issue" (Aka, very poor teamwork) - Very little career development for people in the "out" group - Have to be a loud mouthed demanding person who delegates everything if you want to get promoted. - Company posts fake reviews on glassdoor to make company look better than it is.

Pros

Good People, Pay and Bonus structure are competitive. The work life balance is what you make of it.

Cons

Travel because of the nature of the business. Sites spread out through the country. Working "lean" is a way of life so the more you take on the more they will give you.
