Beware! Not for working women, single parents or anyone who needs flexibility. - Environmental Scientist Black & Veatch Employee Review

We appreciate you taking time to share your personal feelings and views. BV is still a great company to work for due to our people and the projects you mention! We also do have flexibility--not many companies offer the 9/80 scheduling that we do--a three-day weekend every other week?! That's a benefit of a flexible company like BV for single parents, busy families, and everyone in between. If a company these days doesn't have cameras in the building, that's quite a safety issue! It may have been sufficient in the 1950's, but not in 2024. The access control system enhancements are crucial to the safety of our professionals and ensure that first responders have critical safety information during an emergency. The safety and health of employees, clients, and contractors is a Black & Veatch core value, and we have been working on these upgrades as part of our technology roadmap for several years. Concerning the hours spent working in the office, we found that there was a broad misinterpretation of the policy. Some supervisors were allowing people to work less hours in the office and some at home on in office days, but the policy has always been to work a full day in the office--8 or 9 hours whether or not you have a 9/80 schedule. Unfortunately, some are seeing it as something being taken away since they've been doing since we came back to the office, but the policy is not new. Thanks again for your feedback!
