It's hard to say what the pro's will be in six months to a year. I guess if you like working for a massive multinational publicly traded company, working for POWER is an easy way to get in to WSP. The culture used to be great and they used to sell how POWER was different because of its grass-roots employee owned approach, but everything is changing after the acquisition by WSP. Currently, POWER still offers work from home and the work life balance is okay. But it's hard to say if upper management will stick to their word on that in a year when the transition is complete.
Minpunten
POWER was acquired by WSP in the fall of 2024. So everything is subject to change. But anyone who is applying to POWER should know that they are going to be working for WSP within a year. - The pay is abysmal and the benefits are just okay. - Upper management sold out the employees to make some quick money by selling the company and then cut ties and ran. - Nothing has been done to make up for the loss of employee ownership opportunities. - The company is currently in turmoil with the ongoing transition/dissolution after the acquisition. - People are quitting in droves, which is putting more pressure on anyone left over. So if you start with POWER now, know that it's going to be a mess.
