Work was challenging and rewarding. Of course compensation was commensurate. Management is guided by a quality management system.

Cons

Politics within the staff ranks is damaging work systems and human resource management. The management should out this aside and focus on objectivity and productivity.

Business Outlook

Pros

People are nice. They care about each other and willing to explain thing if you don´t understand them. The objective of the company is great ("resource the world").

Cons

The company is a environmental services company, so you usually work in the client´s location. That has some disadvantages since it leads the company to be too spread out. This could conduce to an autonomous point of view of each site, for example, losing the identity or support of the rest of the company.
