Just awful - Environmental Scientist CalRecycle Employee Review

Pros

None, unless you enjoy working at a massively dysfunctional organization.

Cons

Management flagrantly violates labor laws. They are dishonest with their employees—I accepted a “fully remote” position, which turned out to be a lie. They do not follow DAD reasonable accommodation requirements for injured employees. Overall, I deeply regret accepting this job.
