Las Vegas Valley Water Reviews

Current Employee – been working at Las Vegas Valley Water

Pros – Good money to be made. 4 - 10 schedule. Onsite child care.

Cons – Sometimes has a "it's-who-you-know" feel when it comes to promotions and information.

Advice to Senior Management – Follow up on your employees questions, suggestions, issues and requests. We are told to inquire about things but it seems that there's no action / reaction from management. Also, management doesn't seem to get to know us - even after years of employment. Reach out to the people you don't know, even if its uncomfortable for you to do so.

Current Employee – been working at Las Vegas Valley Water

Pros – Good Benefits and a 3 day weekend. The pay is competitive to other companies. Vacation leave, holiday leave, sick days and personal days.

Cons – Too much internal politics. Management does not respect others and is very secretive. Coworker incompetency. People don't get fired, instead are promoted (or moved) to get the person off the team. Moving people does not address the issue.

Advice to Senior Management – Learn some respect and treat us "underlings" like we know something. There are nothing in the matters of national security that can not be conveyed to the teams, after all, we're just in the business of delivering water.

Former Employee – worked at Las Vegas Valley Water

Pros – Great pay, Flexible hours, great people to work with, laid back atmosphere

Cons – It can be monotonous at times. There tends to be a lot of "water cooler" talk. It's not uncommon for a group of employees to socialize in a coworkers cubical for extended periods of time.

Advice to Senior Management – Keep the staff picnic

Former Employee – worked at Las Vegas Valley Water

Pros – It's a very open and forward-thinking environment. Of all of the employers in the Las Vegas area, the Water District is by far one of the best places to work to really get experienced in web development and design. I have nothing but the utmost respect for the management, staff, contractors and support personnel. The level of knowledge , attention to detail, professinalism, and tech-savvy are rare almost anywhere, but unsurpassed at LVVWD or SNWA.

Cons – Promotion potential is somewhat limited for such a large organization, but there are plenty of work-life balance activities.

Advice to Senior Management – Don't treat contractors as second-class workers.
