Thank you for your dedication and valuable feedback! Please connect with your manager and HR to explore the wealth of training opportunities available to you. From GreenRoom resources and local lunch-and-learns to university courses covered by WGI and sessions with our consultants, there's a continuous lineup of professional development offerings. These include technical skills within specialized disciplines, quality control, project management, effective presentation and writing skills, Clifton Strengths, Managing & Maximizing Change, Positive Change, and much more. We recognize that in multi-office firms, culture will naturally vary. We see this as a strength, as long as each unique culture embodies WGI’s core values and resonates with the local community.

Pros

I think the connections with the my former coworkers was the only pro to this job.

Cons

Do I have a lot of cons. I think for starters it’s incredibly offensive to always work on projects that were underbid but was told they weren’t but always going over budget. Utilization goals is what ruined it in my opinion. But it was offensive because we always got in trouble about budgets but always did first time right on projects and produced high quality data but was never celebrated for it. Only beat up about the budget but meanwhile the company spent who knows how much for silly gifts or stuff nobody really cared to have. Not to mention the constant flights for pointless meetings at offices. The mood at the office was toxic and a lot of people before leaving was very distressed and annoyed with management but nobody would listen. Also going to salary is a joke. Expecting people to work more than 40 hours a week and not get paid overtime is as low as you could go but almost forcing it to help with the budgets on projects.

This was very disappointing to read, and even more so, the confusion is profound, especially with your six-year tenure. We sincerely hope you have found employment that offers you’re an environment consistent with your goals.
