Nice People but gives low compensation to employees without titled positions

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Nice, respectful, intelligent people. Good projects. Ok to start your career with.

Cons

Low wages and no bonus to people without an Associate and up title. You have to be an associate or higher position for them to even give importance to you. It is not uncommon for employees to leave the company voluntarily.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good paid time off policy and some flexibility to the schedule. Fellow co-workers are friendly, hard working and will take the time to make sure the clients are happy. Solid amount of work and repeat clients.

Cons

There is little to no room to be promoted within. The company is more focused on buying other companies than trying to grow through new contracts and services. There is a focus on obtaining new employees to fill in gaps vs. promoting within. Each office is run differently. The pay is below market value, even though they stress that they want to be an "employer of choice". Year end bonuses are given to upper management while the people doing the day to day work get nothing.

Business Outlook

Pros

my office is well situated in the town, good working conditions and nice people - the company is recovering well after a few years of redundancies and is working well to uphold the company visions and values

Cons

WSP's national and international status means lots of opportunities for staff to change jobs or move around meaning very little consistancy of work/staff in postions.
