Not worth the stress or risk

Staff environmental engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

I can't think of any and this has a 20 word minimum so just don't work here. Look below for the truth!

Cons

Lay people off at the beginning of every year so they are in the green financially no matter how long you've been there. Employees will throw each other under the bus as soon as they can take advantage of a situation.

Pros

It says I have to write something here.

Cons

Huge turnover. Always looking for younger people who will do work for a fraction of a good wage. Loyalty means nothing. Management picks favorites. Hard work and loyalty mean nothing.
