Pros
With an administrative position in a fast paced, engineering company, I was afraid that my daily tasks and accomplishments would get looked at as menial, however my experience has been quite the opposite. Whenever I started at River Consulting, almost 2 years ago, I knew nothing about the industry. I love the fact that my coworkers are always willing to share their knowledge with me so that I can obtain a better understanding of who we are and what we do, and I'm proud to say that I've learned a lot over these past 2 years and only expect to learn more moving forward. With River, I've had the privilege of getting involved in many different areas of the company. Being involved with so many areas, departments and individuals allows me to never have a dull day at work and there is always something new that I may be working on at any time. An advantage of working anywhere is liking the people that you work with. At River, I've met individuals who I now consider friends. The work environment allows for team-building and collaboration, which is crucial when we spend most of our hours in the workplace. I consider River Consulting to be a great place to work. I've experienced growth opportunities in my short time here and hope to see where these opportunities may lead me in the future with River Consulting.
Cons
Communication across all levels of the company is not always clear, precise, and direct. That being said, I think that there will be communication issues at all companies due to management styles, communication styles, etc. In this area, I believe that the issues are recognized and we continuously make strives towards improving communication across all offices.
