Pros

They are basically a staffing firm for the fracking industry, if that’s your cup of tea.

Cons

They once had promise across multiple energy segments but through a series of poor M&A activities and founder mistakes it left the company a shell of what it could have been. The turnover has been quite high (voluntary and forced) especially in leadership where there’s a big revolving door.

Sorry you had a bad experience. Depending on when you started at Workrise, it could have been a bumpy ride, and I understand that / take responsibility. However.. since 2022, we have been open and transparent about the transformation of the company. Over the last 18 months, we have completely changed the trajectory of the business. We have rolled out a new mission, a new vision, and a new strategy. We have gone from a workforce provider operating across multiple end markets to a holistic supply chain solution focused solely on the future of energy! As we enter 2024… we are profitable, we are delivering on substantial growth, and we will have 3 products in market, each of which is removing friction from the energy supply chain, and accelerating a more sustainable future.

Pros

Immediate supervisor was supportive, helpful, and readily available for questions or concerns.

Cons

Upper management was constantly changing. Layoffs would occur at odd times and in productive areas of the company.

Pros

The company embraces a remote work culture and doesn't engage in reassessing pay if you relocate, unlike other companies that will adjust if you move to a cheaper COLA. The company has turned around substantially in terms of performance and management after divesting of multiple lines of business in 2022. Leadership is more focused on achieving results in the two remaining lines of business and as an employee, it is easier to achieve results compared to when we had 5-6 lines of business. From a technology perspective, we have access to all the cool cloud tech you could want. From a tech startup standpoint, I would rate the WLB here as much better than most startups. This obviously varies from team to team like any company. Pay and benefits are competitive for a tech company. The company in the last review cycle has made an effort to ensure all employees have some equity and not just the highly compensated tech roles, which is good. "Unlimited PTO": I have never felt like I was denied PTO or that this policy caused me to take less PTO than if I worked at a company with a PTO bucket. It is nice that if you are sick you don't have to worry about using PTO. The general future outlook is good. The company is the "right size" and generating revenue to avoid the mass layoffs we are currently seeing in tech.

Cons

Lots of turn over in the past year even after the layoffs in March 2022. It makes it somewhat hard [mentally] to invest in relationships if you feel like that person will be out the door in 6-12 months. The culture seems a bit stagnant for a remote company. Hard to tell if this is causing the higher turnover or if the higher turnover is causing the stagnant culture. ERGs seem mostly dead, but again may be due to the turnover.
