Pros

NRP produces a high standard of work. In this relatively small company this means that everyone's input matters. As a result, each member of staff is valued. The company is growing and the addition of the Traffic and Transportation team in 2015 continues to be a very successful venture.

Cons

Issues that I may have once reported here have all since been resolved or are continually being improved.

Pros

When I first joined, the company had a genuinely positive culture with supportive teams, manageable workloads, and a strong sense of collaboration. Unfortunately, that has changed quite significantly over the past year.

Cons

Despite going through financial difficulties and a team restructure, largely caused by overly ambitious expansion, the senior leadership team remains overly optimistic. There’s little sign that lessons have been learned, and decision-making continues without fully addressing the realities on the ground. Tight budgets and high expectations have led to widespread overworking. While management regularly states that overtime is discouraged, the workload often makes it impossible to complete tasks within standard hours over a five-day week. As a result, late-night working has become normal. When quality inevitably suffers due to stretched resources, it’s the employees who are held accountable. One of the more disheartening aspects has been the company’s lack of recognition for loyalty and consistent effort. Junior employees who deliver quality work are often overlooked, with few development opportunities offered. Instead, external hires and promotions for senior staff take precedence. There are still talented and kind individuals here, and the company has potential to improve. But for early-career professionals seeking genuine growth, work-life balance, and a truly inclusive environment, I’d recommend approaching with realistic expectations.
