Pros

Good people. The office itself is nice.

Cons

High high turnover. In my office, we lost ~80% of the mid-level management in a year and a half (project managers and section leaders). We lost probably 20% of the low level staff. No one is working in the office. Non-existent office culture as a result. Redundant management style. Lack of direction. Miscommunication, conflicting messaging, and unfulfilled promises.

Your comments about turnover reflect the competitive nature of our industry, as vying for top talent is more fierce than ever. CHA’s Talent Acquisition Team has been working on overdrive to fill vacancies and recruit great team members to our company. Indeed, COVID has taken a toll on office workplace culture across the board, not just at CHA. On the bright side, we are fortunate to work in an industry that is thriving despite the setbacks of the past 18 months, and that our employees have been able to transition to work from home so successfully. We appreciate you taking the time to leave comments here, the good and the not-so-good, as we can always grow from constructive feedback. I’m thrilled you like your colleagues and feel good about your office environment and I’m sure more and more people will start to return to the office over the next number of months.

Pros

Seeing a pattern of addressing only the pros and rarely having any accountibiloty to comments in Cons section, Pros will not be listed here.

Cons

-Hyper critical work culture to point that compromises employee personal and office morale -Almost no field support and field between on-site field team is almost impossible -Field supervisors are spread very thin in responsibility which causes the above issues -Employee personal dislikes are apparent on teams which lead to discordant team dynamics. Ex. Team member will laugh and joke with some team members, but other get professional, but near frigid responses. -Favoritism is rampant creating a less than ideal work environment.
