Thank you for sharing your feedback. While we value constructive input, it’s important to clarify some inaccuracies in your statements. At Osborn Engineering, we are committed to transparency, fairness, and fostering a positive workplace culture. We have also been made aware that several employees have raised concerns about misinformation in this review. We suspect this may come from a competitor or a former employee now working for a competitor. Below, we address the points raised:
DEIB Initiatives:
Osborn is committed to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) initiatives which goes far beyond a statement on our website.
We actively support employee resource groups, provide quarterly DEIB education, and facilitate discussions to foster inclusivity.
Our intranet serves as a platform for employees to share and post information supporting diversity initiatives.
Employee Stock Program:
Our employee stock ownership program is open to all eligible employees who have been with the company for 1-3 years, ensuring equal access and opportunity for wealth-building across the organization.
Maternity Leave:
Our maternity leave benefits exceed industry standards, and we provide additional flexibility for new parents, including options for extended leave and a gradual return to work. We are proud to have supported numerous employees through these life transitions.
401(k) Match:
Our 401(k)-match program is in addition to our stock bonus program, which offers bonus shares for shares purchased. We continuously evaluate our benefits to ensure they meet the needs of our employees and are always working to improve them.
9/80 Schedule:
The 9/80 schedule is a voluntary option designed to offer work-life balance. Many employees, at different career stages, find this schedule beneficial. It’s one of several flexible work arrangements we offer.
Workplace Culture:
Osborn has been recognized for cultivating a family-oriented environment. We aim to empower employees of all generations and backgrounds through mentorship, professional development, and inclusion initiatives.
While we acknowledge that no workplace is perfect, labeling our culture as "cult-like" is inaccurate and unreflective of our supportive, collaborative environment.
Leadership & Direction:
Our leadership team is forward-thinking and continuously strives to stay competitive and innovative in the AEC industry. Initiatives are regularly evaluated and updated to align with industry trends and employee feedback.
If any current or former employees, or potential candidates, have questions or concerns about our policies or programs, we encourage them to reach out directly to our HR team at HR@osborn-eng.com. We are committed to addressing concerns promptly and factually.
We remain focused on fostering a positive workplace for all employees and appreciate your understanding as we work to correct misinformation.
