Diverse practices and making positive impacts - Principal NELSON Worldwide Employee Review

nice people and the best boss

I honestly don't have any

The people are the heartbeat of the company. Truly, some of the kindest, enthusiastic and creative people I've ever had the pleasure of working with.

Each office operates as a separate firm which means little consistency in regards to systems, workflows and process. On top of that, so many people have left or been let go that there are massive information gaps. Often, the demands of the client are prioritized over the capacity of the team and proposals seem to have been written in a vacuum. In essence, you are consistently set up for one thing: failure. ZERO investment in professional or personal development (despite repeated efforts from team and practice leaders). Despite the firm being quite successful, poor business decisions mean frequent layoffs. Consequently, teammates are frequently taking on additional workloads and are silenced through a culture of fear that they may be next. I'll give one example of company culture. If you want to welcome a new coworker to the firm by taking them out to lunch, or getting them a card or flowers, that money comes out of your pocket. Ever wondered what it feels like to be a cog in a wheel? Join Nelson!
