National Ecological Observatory Network reviews

-No leadership connection to the NSF which would guarantee our success -A few people are really fake, back stabbing, or screwed up -Many good people have already left -Systems engineering department is strangling our company with bureaucracy -Systems in place are too bureaucratic to accomplish anything -The worst HR department imaginable

NEON management works hard to earn the distrust of its employees and the public. I eagerly accepted a job at NEON because I believed in the mission to provide long-term ecological data sets to the public, allowing the opportunity for truly transparent science. I resigned because the management of this project is un-apologetically far more fascinated with dishonesty and disrespect than science or real data. NEON propagates and rewards laziness. I echo what others have said: managers can collect paychecks for doing nothing, not even showing up for work.
