Pros

Some talented coworkers Exposure to decent client projects

Cons

Very vertical, hierarchical culture — you need permission for almost everything, which slows down work and discourages initiative Management is poor at communication and decision-making Leadership focuses on hierarchy rather than supporting employees Bonuses are frequently delayed or uncertain, which makes planning difficult and hurts trust Lack of empowerment and transparency leads to frustration and low morale

Thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback. We are disappointed to hear your experience isn't the one we strive for here at Woolpert. Woolpert is very focused on providing a high-touch, collaborative culture, and we continue providing further employee and people management development as we grow the firm. We'd like to learn more about your perspective and invite you to reach out to your HRBP (Melissa Z.) so we can work on making further improvements.

Thanks for taking the time out of your day to leave us some feedback. We are glad to hear you feel the flexibility, pay and benefits are great but based on your overall rating it appears we are missing the mark and you feel there is no path of advancement. I would encourage you to reach out to your HRBP (Kayla) and your manager to further discuss your career path. Thank you!

Pros

Remote/Hybrid Options Unlimited PTO and had no problems getting approved Good Work Life balance 1 week separate sick pay Salary is above average for this sector

Cons

401k match is 50% match at 7% which is below average There is a bonus but it's small and implemented through goals which is arbitrary & would differ from person to person Woolpert is fairly new to Texas (or it seems like it) so a lot of processes still need to be put in place for young engineers to thrive People Managers are scarcley invloved and are mainly 'work winners'

We appreciate you leaving your feedback and are happy to hear you enjoy your job, the environment and benefits! We recently expanded our training offerings for engineers and younger professionals with Project Fundamentals training. Additionally, our School of PE program helps EITs prepare for licensure and includes access to high-quality prep resources and dedicated study time. We are also working to strengthen mentorship and hands-on support from management, as we recognize that is an area of opportunity. Thank you for your feedback as it helps us continue to grow and improve!
