I don’t want to waste my time elaborating on the general poor conditions at and mistreatment of employees other than to say that everything negative in the reviews you see here is true. In terms of content there wasn’t a single thing I read that made me raise an eyebrow.
Instead I want to address the issue of misogyny and workplace discrimination. I have heard, seen, and been on the receiving end of misogynistic/bigoted/sexists comments at Navanti. In response to instances of sexual harassment in the workplace the company’s general counsel provided a briefing on “sexual harassment” that was essentially guidance to the men in the office on how to not leave proof if they were harassing their colleagues ( “don’t text the woman you like, ask her out in person!”)
I also know for a fact that women were paid less (in some cases A LOT less) than men for the exact same job (pssst! In case you’re wondering that’s ILLEGAL). This issue was raised repeatedly by employees and lower level managers to upper management and even the CEO, and they were persistently dismissed. It is no surprise so many resorted to posting about it here. Anything written here has been said dozens times to both to HR and to the CEO. These are not surprise attacks. These are not the posts of trolls. These are FACTS. If Navanti cared about the facts they wouldn’t waste their time trying to debunk negative reviews on Glassdoor. They would focus on treating their female employees like people (I know, radical concept!). They should be ashamed of what they allowed to persist for so long. If things are better for women now, it’s because the CEO wised up and realized one day his misogyny would lead to a lawsuit. Better late than never I guess!
