Resource Energy Reviews

Pros

Highly committed staff and management. Cares about the clients needs and employee's. Great place to work and grow.

Cons

Nothing that comes to mind

Pros

Flexible, remote, laid back, Great place to start entry

Cons

Monotonous, no oppurtnites for growth, Management doesnt try to keep talent. HIgh turnover

Pros

This is the first company I've worked for that REALLY cares about their employees. The CEO goes out of his way to make sure his staff is happy and Sr Management follows suit. The culture is evolving and the company takes feedback seriously and takes action to make improvements. Personal contributions are recognized and appreciated. Management is passionate about their work, empowers employees and supports career growth.

Cons

There are a lot of entry level positions which obviously leads to turnover either because people take their experiences to new opportunities outside the company or because they are promoted from within.

Pros

Comments below are based on my experiences with the company. Rapid development of analytical skills and data set management. Immersive and extensive experience with Microsoft Excel including efficient spreadsheet design and formula optimization. Exposure to a large client portfolio and experience working with their administrative and managerial departments. Good introduction or deepening of understanding of the commercial energy management industry.

Cons

Comments below are based on my experiences with the company. Work-life balance is not a priority. Expect 50+ hour weeks in order to avoid getting behind. Individual workload expectations are unreasonable and associated deadlines are unrealistic. Working in evenings, on weekends, and on PTO days is not uncommon and arguably expected. Expect to work through lunch frequently. Culture is poor. Silent office throughout the day with little to no talking due to workload and deadline pressures. Anxiety and exhaustion across all staff. Very depressing and irritable atmosphere. Some staff try to improve culture through lunchtime activities but they’re few and intermittent, and sometimes feel forced. Candor and honesty from Analysts never feels encouraged. Which is a shame considering they’re the backbone of the company. Micromanagement and over-scrutiny of work quality is commonplace and the level of quality expected under workload and deadlines is unacceptable. Little to no direction from senior management and any direction that is given is often hastily changed with little warning to Analysts. Occasional unprofessional conduct from senior leadership (yelling, making a scene, etc.). Benefits are not ideal and pay is low for workload. High turnover as a result of these issues. Staff often stay fewer than 2 years and it’s common to see resignations before 1 year. This job is absolutely not something to make a career out of.

Pros

Team oriented, family-oriented, must be willing to put in the work

Cons

Limited amount of supplier base

Pros

RES is a good company for those who have just graduated college. You can learn soft skills as in email writing, working on a team, talking on the phone professionally, etc. There is a generally good camaraderie among analyst (only) as they only want what's best for one another.

Cons

There is a clear divide among upper management and analysts. Management berates lower position analysts and does not encourage or support them. Analysts start to think so little of themselves because they are constantly getting put down. The tone in the office is mute. It is constantly silent and there is minimal chatter. If one does speak he/ she is stared at like he/she is doing something unthinkable. There is little room to grow which causes the extremely high turnover. The company is held back from successful because all senior staff look for new employment after a year. Therefore, things that have been done in years past gets lost in emails of people that have left. There is zero cross training and false promises during interviews that there is.
