Used to be a good company - Project Engineer CH2M Employee Review

Pros

There are still some great people left working there. But they are trying to hold up a sinking ship. It used to be a good place to work, with a leadership that was focused and supportive. The "Little Yellow Book" way of life used to be real and people mattered. Sadly not any more. Pay and benefits are industry standard which is decent.

Cons

Management is too top heavy and there is absolutely no communication down from the top. Workers get pigeon-holed with no where to grow or advance. Questionable pay and time reporting practices - if you are "salaried", you only get paid hourly for the hours you work and they take your vacation to make up the balance. And you can't stop them. No overhead, no help looking for work from management, no support, and the saddest part - no loyalty to employees.

Thank you for the feedback. We are committed to creating a culture that is respectful, collaborative and positive so we are disappointed to hear about your experience at CH2M. We value and consider all feedback and we’ll continue to find ways to improve. Our culture is a key differentiator, and we always keep an eye out for behaviors that don’t add to the strong, vibrant culture we’ve created. As a company we are communicating with a greater level of transparency than ever before. Are we perfect? No, but communication is one of our highest priorities as we continue to evolve and adapt to the marketplace and the stakeholders we serve. Thanks, Matt

Pros

Vision and mission, benefits, interesting projects, offices...

Cons

I66 Management is ridiculous. A PM who has absolutely no idea - he's not even an engineer - and a business manager who has been continuously described by the client as incompetent and useless. It weighs heavy on me to hear the client saying " is this really ch2m?"
