Used to be a good company to work for but that was years ago. - Senior Project Manager Weston Solutions Employee Review

Weston is a small enough company to allow you access to upper management. You also have flexibility to choose different projects and learn new skills.

Not much cons to say.

Strong field experience with real-world EPA emergency response projects. Opportunities to work on high-impact sites like wildfire response and hazardous waste removal. Good exposure to equipment, safety protocols, and multi-agency coordination.

Compensation is below industry standards, and in California, some associates were paid below the state’s minimum salary threshold for exempt employees. Compensation was only adjusted after sustained employee pushback to reach compliant levels, raising serious concerns about pay practices and internal oversight. The loss of experienced department heads and knowledgeable staff has diminished mentorship opportunities and institutional knowledge. Growth on the West Coast is limited, with a heavy dependence on EPA-related work. During slower periods, employees may be required to support other offices or take on work outside their primary roles to maintain utilization. Project management and internal organization can be inconsistent, often resulting in unclear expectations and last-minute changes. Workload fluctuates significantly, creating cycles of high stress followed by underutilization. Career advancement pathways are not clearly defined, and high-performing employees are not always recognized or given opportunities for growth. Employee morale very low, with many colleagues expressing dissatisfaction with the company’s direction and leadership. There is a clear disconnect between upper management and field staff, particularly on the West Coast, where employees may feel overlooked compared to other regions.
