Lots of turmoil right now - Energy Analyst Rushing Employee Review

This is a small but mighty company that sincerely tries to practice what it preaches. I’d say they hit that goal 8/10 times and strive for better - always. Great people, benefits, pay, all the things. Can’t speak for everyone but I’d say most studios have complete flexibility in their schedules as long as they get their work done and communicate with teams.

You’re going to get burnt out - it’s just a matter of time. Severe lack of ownership and accountability for work across too many studios. No dogs except the owners dogs in office. Not a place to build a career if you’re already at a Senior or established role. They’re already too top heavy as it is. Typical story - untrained or frankly just bad management and it trickles down.

There are two reasons for my review: bunch of negative reviews that mostly reflect personal vendetta and recent shiny reviews that may be overstating the reality. The truth is in between, but more on a positive note. These negative comments are obviously folks that are bitter about something, and it’s sad that mostly bitter people take time to write online reviews in general. People that see positives usually don’t bother writing. Frankly, if you’re a hard worker this place is good for you. If you’re looking for a free ride, I can see you writing a bitter review in a year or two. Yes, we work long hours, but if you’re in the industry you know that everyone works long hours nowadays because Seattle market is HOT and projects are popping left and right! I have friends in other companies that average about the same hours as I do, and I work more than most people at Rushing. Pay is also fair, benefits decent, and a few extra perks help.

Long hours and mediocre staffing history. Some good people were let go or left on their own without being properly replaced. Some others were hired without clear picture of their abilities which leads to high turnover.
