Pros

Some colleagues you work with are hardworking. There is flexibility to WFH. That’s about it.

Cons

Management has no idea how to manage a client or program. It is very chaotic and they will expect you to learn on the go. There is zero training provided. Different departments don’t work with each other well and as managers you are supposed to figure out everything on your own. Management does not care about you or your well-being. The pay is mediocre at best and there are hardly any conversations around career path and growth opportunities. More than anything, the lack of structure and support will make you crazy. Everyone will try to push you to work 60-80 hour weeks and there is no concept of work life balance. Also, what you do on a daily basis will be vastly different from the job description. For a technology-driven org, they are so dependent on manual work. There is no automation at a program level. Entire teams are struggling but there is no support.

Pros

Great WFH flexibility. Program missions are well intentioned, making it easy to bond with colleagues over a similar cause. Camaraderie is strong (when it is found), and allows employees a good sandbox to learn the industry and grow their expertise in energy efficiency together.

Cons

Consulting lends itself to stretching employees thin to keep margins high, and leadership is slow to react to help resolve this inherent conflict. A recent spike in new business has left teams disproportionately resourced and scrambling to make new hires. A pathway to career progression is muddy, leaving it up to the employee to trial and error professional growth strategies with little insight as to what meets expectations and what doesn’t. I would recommend RI to anyone, but would encourage them to be diligent about respecting their own work-life-balance boundaries. It will be tempting to go with the flow for the sake of making things work. There is a difference between being a team player and taking on too much. Most folks are burnt out, oblivious to the gravity of the situation, or too focused on staying afloat to pause and collaborate on a wider solution. RI was a fantastic place to work at one point, and has the potential to get back to that.
