Utah Transit Authority reviews

UTA as a whole is a good place to work. Each department has their own unique culture- some are great, others are not. Management sets the tone in each, and unfortunately there are a few bad managers who lack competence, integrity, and accountability, among other things. My rating is of the People office (formerly HR) only, not UTA as a whole. Opportunities to do new things are almost non-existent. With the exception of the HR Business Partners all of the HR roles are very pigeon-holed, leading to burnout and no growth. Unless you come to UTA already having other HR skills/experience, you likely will not be able to do anything else, unless you play the game and suck up to the new management team. Most employees leave because of their managers, not jobs. So what is the reason so many employees have recently left, are leaving, or want to leave but haven’t yet, the People/HR office in droves? Poor management, no real leadership, endless talking without any action, incompetence, arrogance... Again, employees leave managers, not jobs/companies.

If you go full time the days are really long. They have split shifts and the union shift bid structure makes it so that you get the shifts that others don't want when you are new. Part-Time though, the shifts are really good, and the company treats you well.
