Pros

Attempting to lead the charge in green energy transitions.

Cons

Management beyond one level above knows nothing about the job I performed, never checked in. Clearly marked structure for promotions was not followed, promotions dangled in front of many instructors to keep us where we were. Management organization shuffled many times, clear influence of military experience as far as "the good old boys", favoritism, and unprofessional treatment of employees.

Toxic workplace with no accountability

Pros

None. This place is a black hole of toxicity.

Cons

This company allows their managers to repeatedly harass and discriminate against their employees. They do not care about reports made to HR about these managers creating a hostile work environment even when you e given them proof of the behavior. They will do nothing about it and turn their heads when the behavior continues.

Avoid This Company At All Cost

Pros

They’re 1 day in the office and 4 days remote (Subject to change)

Cons

Entire company is a high turnover dumpster fire. Continuous low annual employee company reviews, employees are overworked and fed up and they were looking for a payroll manager for months! There is no onboarding for new employees, policy/procedural overview, and by the time you reach day 1, an employee on day 3 that is not a manager will be training you. I worked at a pizza restaurant in high school ran by teenagers that was better managed than this company. They were hiring people for senior leadership positions that lasted a day! Avoid this company at all costs as it a career reroute that will make you feel like you wasted your time. I wish I could give this company negative stars
