Environmental Engineer - Environmental Engineer IEPA Employee Review

New leadership is good. Hiring a lot of people. Excellent insurance Good work life balance Somewhat flexible schedule

Bureaucracy, as should be expected. New hires come in thinking it will be high tech here and It’s not. It’s public service, expectations should be measured. Not a ton of money for tech like in private sector. Understaffed

*Remote work two days a week * kind people to work with * good benefits, fair pay *sense of employment stability

*lack of effective training *red tape *upper management doesn't seem to care about us *workload can be a lot *can be hard to learn the laws and regulations well enough to enforce them *periodic trips to Springfield are required, for occupational clinic visits and social events
