Pros

I love working at Woolpert because of the work and the people. I left the company for a year and a half(after having worked at Woolpert for 14 years), but came back because I missed the excitement and joy of working in GIS and using the latest technologies, working with people and clients I had built relationships with over several years, and the ability to be creative in my work while still being challenged and provide useful solutions for our clients. Since my return I've also been very pleased with the excitement and leadership provided by senior management. It has been a breath of fresh air, and I think it's made us all want to do better and be better employees, and I am excited for the direction Woolpert is headed.

Cons

We can always strive to do better. Every single one of us. I think the senior leadership that is currently in place is aiming to do better and lead by example, and inspiring all of us to do so as well, yet hold us accountable. No company is perfect, and even those that get all of the awards still have their problems and issues, as I've come to realize. And so with Woolpert, I really have no cons. Things are never as bad as they seem, and Woolpert has shown a willingness and ability to adapt, evolve, and persevere. While there are many ways the company can improve, we as employees all play a part in that and make the company what it is, and so we all have the responsibility to contribute and improve the company rather than simply complain. Everyone just needs to put in the time and effort to work with others to make the company better.

Pros

Employees are passionate about their work and their customers. Flexibility is really great, the ability to work remotely when so many other companies are forcing people back to the office is a big plus. People are genuinely nice and want to help each other which is not something you find at every company.

Cons

A lot of change, but that is to be expected with how much the company is growing.

Pros

Flexibility, sense of ownership in your work, some great people

Cons

The bonus was below industry standard and is formulated per how well the entire company does. This isn’t fair that some of the company that doesn’t do well affects everyone else, especially when we can’t hire enough people to do the work.
