Pros

I've worked at awful companies (big and small) and on gov contracts. Woolpert is by far the best company I've ever worked for. I have a department director who always supports the team. I have options to advance my career. Continuous learning opportunities. I love it here!

Cons

There was a salary adjustment across the technical people, but not in my department. Apparently being paid up to 20% less than the median salary for your role and years of experience is how they want to operate. At least, in my department! Knowing people with far less experience being hired in at rates higher than my current salary is frustrating. Also, you could win millions of dollars for your proposal and you MIGHT get a thank you.

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.
