      Pros

      POWER offers challenging and meaningful work that has a positive impact on the work. They are all about helping you grow in your career path that you get to help shape based on your interests. It's an employee owned company and they do make a good effort to help it be the employer of choice. Work life balance is very achievable and the company is very flexible with it's employee's particularly in remote or hybrid working environments. They do a great job considering the wider impact of their work in the community, environment and the world. They do a great job seeking to stay ahead of technology disrupters and in general being a very inclusive and welcoming bunch of folks who help each other across departments.

      Cons

      While they did increase the ownership cap to 30% of employee's they still have that artificial limit and likely more than 30% of the companies employee's are high-performers and merit receiving ownership. I think the ownership consideration/evaluation of ownership candidates by the ownership committee needs to be more transparent and objective. There is still as strong sense of it's who you know and who your known and liked by that factors strongly into their decisions.

      Thanks so much for your feedback, and we're glad you're having an overall positive experience with POWER! We're currently working on a communications plan around the criteria for ownership—we recognize that transparency is vital in this area. In the meantime, we encourage speaking with your manager about how you can be considered for shareholder status in the future. Thanks again for your honest review; we always appreciate hearing how we can improve.

      Pros

      Was a genuinely great place to work. Great people and great culture. It was worth the slightly-lower-than-average pay because work life balance and benefits were great. I enjoyed going to work every day.

      Cons

      Poor financial decisions from upper management regarding the shareholder program led to the company's demise. Upper management sold out to WSP. Management made millions while long time employees got zilch. As someone else had mentioned, retention bonuses were unfairly distributed. Most people didn't get any retention bonus even if they had been long time employees of the company. It really felt like everyone who wasn't upper management got stabbed in the back. They got their payout then dumped the company. Still stings to this day.
