Dynamic workplace with growth potential but high pressure
Pros
- The company has a lot of growth potential with the various ecology roles you can progress through. - You work alongside highly skilled and knowledgable people in all areas of the company. - The tech team are phenomenal at their work and are constantly working on new problems and projects making it both fast-paced and engaging. - The company is at the front-line of new survey methods, practices, and software. - New ideas are always accepted and will quickly be acted on where they're positive making it a dynamic workplace.
Cons
- It can often be a high pressure environment where getting behind on work can snowball. There are systems in place to assist people in a backlog but it can lead to stress. I'm expecting this will change in the coming year as new systems are put in place for assigning work, monitoring work, and training. - If you're working for the internship or completing bat surveys you are likely to have unsociable working hours - Some daytime and evening surveys can be far away (up to 2 hours but average for me ranged from 0.5-1.25 hours)
