Pros

Outside of IT, the WSP business has been extremely helpful and encouraging. As a young professional I still have a lot to learn, there have been multiple high-ranking employees of the Baltimore, Bethlehem, and New York offices who have taken me under their wing and mentored me. I would say WSP really looks out for the younger generation internally.

Cons

IT... as whole In my career in IT at WSP I've been "promoted" twice without an accompanying pay raise. The excuse has been "Lets revisit after a year" then after a year goes by there is some other excuse. This has also been the case for a few other IT Another problem is IT doesn't hold anyone accountable. There have been several employees who, despite committing egregious workplace errors, continue to be employed. At the Service Desk level, we've hired quite a few contractors which I assume is common these days. WSP is FLAT OUT LIEING to these poor kids, telling them the position is 6 month Contract to Hire which is completely untrue. The Service Desk will be completely outsourced on August 1st.

Pros

Been to other offices and they are far better than the Cambridge one.

Cons

Poor management. Past lab supervisor didn't know how to do any of the tests properly and was harassing numerous coworkers. Management was informed of this behaviour and nothing was done. Same lab super was caught multiple times altering reports in order for tests to have passed (concrete, soil, etc.), management was informed of this and nothing was done. I was told numerous times that they would fire the super but they're "too cheap and not willing to pay severance." Poor pay. Long hours. Techs must use own vehicle. Do not work in this office.

Pros

+ Flexible Working + Limited, but some exposure to interesting projects

Cons

- No line management, complete lack of support and no visibility of career progression - Junior members of staff left alone and not given interesting work (expected to cover basic administration, document control etc, rarely trusted on engineering projects) - No responsibility or trust to complete work
