Westat reviews

To the Senior Study Director. You must work on a unique project. I was in a satelite site for five years. Great people, great work, supportive atmosphere. Recieved outstanding reviews. Since arriving at The Main campus I have to agree with a lot of the reviews on here. No support, no training, no interaction with anyone. I was shown my ( temporary office, and that was the last time anyone took the time to acclimate me. As far as losing jobs after project, you must not be aware of all of the layoffs form the MEPS project. Over 200 people. Plus the layoffs from the NCS project. Most of us are told trhat everything is temporary and no promises. I was laid off in May re-hired in June.Your posting unfortunately sounds like a recruiting ad. Soory, no disrespect, but true. That seems to be the problem here. No sense of reality. I have to be honest I loved this company and was ready to stay for good.

Mediocrity, mediocrity, mediocrity. No correlation between skill/effort and rewards. Management prefers to promote people whose skills and work ethic are mediocre. Perhaps this is due to favoritism; perhaps management prefers non-threatening underlings? Workplace rife with incivility and everyday bullying, including forms of bad behavior that meet the definition of illegal harassment of people with protected characteristics.
