Pros

-Open door policy communication. You can get in touch with the president of the company and ask him any question that may be on your mind. Whether it's a suggestion, curiosity about the company, or how his weekend was. This policy trickles down throughout management and I have worked under several managers. I have never felt like I couldn't speak my mind. -Great benefits package and ESOP. Great healthcare and 401K contribution. -Ability to work remotely on occasion if you have shown your work ethic to be good. -Opportunities in numerous environmental consulting fields. The job varies across the company departments and are dependent on your office location. You have the opportunity to learn from all of the departments through trainings or simply having conversations with your colleagues. -Office culture is very respectful. -Work hard, show effort, take responsibility, and you will thrive here.

Cons

It's a client-driven company so there are some times when you are expected to respond to a client outside of normal business hours.

The Vertex Companies Response

Thank you for taking the time to write this review! Ideas and suggestions are welcome and management is open to listening. We agree that the benefits, Employee Stock Ownership Program, healthcare, and 401k contribution are all great additions. There is an online training program being created to allow our employee-owners to learn more about other areas of the company. VERTEX appreciates hard working and motivated employee-owners. We value our clients and operate with a sense of urgency, so responding outside of normal business hours is some times the best thing to do in order to keep that great relationship!

Pros

Remote work, revised PTO and benefits recently.

Cons

The Vertex Companies talks a lot about performance-based pay, but the follow-through isn’t there. I exceeded expectations, had strong client relationships, and solid support from leadership—yet the merit increase felt like a slap in the face. When you’re told compensation is tied to performance but see little difference between average and high performers, it raises real concerns about how employees are valued. The company appears far more focused on protecting margins and pleasing shareholders than rewarding the people driving the work. It’s disappointing, because strong performance should be recognized in a meaningful way—not minimized.
