WSP reviews

There is no clear path to advancement. This is sold as a freedom: free to make your own career path, but is frustrating when no one knows how you can earn more money. I was told by the regional business line leader to "Make yourself more valuable to the company" -- that's it, no specifics, no metrics, no guidance.

The role ultimately differed from initial expectations in both workload and structure. Travel demands were significantly heavier than described, often requiring five consecutive days on the road with limited recovery time, which made maintaining work-life balance difficult. Office tasks frequently extended beyond standard hours due to shifting priorities and communication gaps. During my first six months, consistent billable work and structured training were limited, which made it challenging to integrate as someone new to the industry. Over time, leadership support declined, with inconsistent communication, canceled one-on-one meetings, delayed responses, and feedback that often felt either overly vague or excessively critical without much constructive middle ground. There appeared to be minimal accountability at the management level and limited transparency regarding workload distribution and advancement pathways. The compensation did not feel aligned with the travel intensity, workload, and expectations of the role.
