Pros

Amidst the thousand(s) who now work there, there are some quality, strategic people with high integrity and desire to work hard but also have a life. Very few live in Austin (HQ) and most come from the companies they've gobbled up.

Cons

Most of the quality people have or will be leaving. They have done a disastrous job of integrating their new companies. Instead of taking the time to understand the quality and innovation they've purchased and the talent of the staff they've acquired, they strong arm their (dysfunctional, nonstrategic, unstructured) way of doing business on the newly acquired companies, spend no time understanding the talent they've purchased and shove people to wherever is easiest or they have a hole (with nepotism and sexism as a background theme), regardless of skill, experience or employee interest. There has been SO MUCH WASTE of amazing talent in their acquisitions. An organizational design and effectiveness consultant would cringe to witness the precisely opposite behaviors this company has exhibited when acquiring and growing. 4+ companies in one year. There has been little effort to strategically define or track metrics the type of metrics that will drive actual acquisition success. Shocking. Sad. Exhausting.

While difficult to read, we appreciate the thoughtful way you’ve articulated these issues. We regret that this has been your experience. Every bit of feedback human resources receives allows us to create a more positive experience for new employees and improve the work environment for existing employees. Our integration process now includes ongoing executive roundtables, feedback sessions from employees, feedback surveys that are reviewed and actioned both by regional management and national leadership. Because of what we’ve learned, our most recent acquisition has been smooth and heartening. At CLEAResult, we are resolute in our belief that we can create a great place to work and serve clients with the mission of changing the way people use energy.

Pros

I have worked in CLR for 4 years as contractor and my experience was very positive , I have joined as a FTE with the expectation of contributing in a collaborative and respectful environment. Unfortunately, my experience was different. After raising concerns with leadership and HR regarding my work environment and management practices, I submitted a formal written complaint requesting that the company investigate whether company policies on fair treatment and non-retaliation had been followed. Following the submission of my complaint, I did not receive a response or acknowledgment from HR regarding whether an investigation would be initiated. Throughout my experience, I felt that I was subjected to frequent criticism, repeated rework, inconsistent expectations, and a lack of psychological safety. From my perspective, these issues made it difficult to perform my job effectively and created a hostile work environment from my manager theres no co-oparation. All my fellow collogues also shared the same experience . Unfortunately no actions has been taken

Cons

I have spent good 4 years with collaborative people in high pace agile environment and delivered more than 40 projects .I have received Lot of opportunity for learning and growth.
