Concept of the key product is a great as it helps companies visualize their energy usage and try to help reduce costs and emissions. Many of the employees were lovely people and fantastic to work with.

Minpunten

For a small company very top heavy, lots of directors and managers with very few staff doing the work. Teams of 2 -3. It is a small company tried to expand globally but then get in to financial difficulty because of poor sales. Despite being an IT company many tasks were very labor intensive so did not scale well. Software is very large and bloated and can be difficult to master. Many sections are written for one customer in mind and do not apply easily to others. This is not fault of developers who are wonderful but as a result of a series of knee jerk direction changes based on poor decisions by directors. In the past some rushed releases of the software that have not addressed existing bugs and created a whole heap of new bugs because of top down pressure to release the software on an arbitrary date. Dubious HR practices in relationship to how staff are allowed to apply for internal positions, how staff on contracts are treated, how staff are selected for redundancy, how job descriptions are changed. Directors often ignored employees concerns and grievances resulting in a huge turn over of staff for such a small company. This high turnover did leave lots of opportunity for promotion but only if you were allowed to apply for the position. Poor investment in tools and hardware, the company is an IT company but was running 5+ year old servers, investment kept getting delayed to the next financial year. Customer support priority tended to be either the customer that screamed the loudest or the customer that payed the most money.

Comments from management - We are sad to read a review that has been written so inaccurately and wish to correct many of the items listed here. eSight's Server infrastructure is brand new and massive investment has been made in a high power, state of the art data warehouse. Software has been specifically designed to be globally scalable and all releases are designed so that only globally applicable functionality is included in any release. eSight Energy is an 'Investor in People' and takes HR concerns extremely seriously. We are proud that our staff turnover is extremely low, not as represented above (we have not had anybody leave the entire group since early 2014). We encourage our staff to apply for internal promotion, as we understand that moving up in an organization enables personal development which is key to ongoing job contentment. The company is extremely financially stable and reporting strong growth in sales again this year, with this financial year on track to be our strongest year on record.

eSight Energy has been the best place I've ever worked at. I've been with the company for over 5 years and the company has treated me very well. The workplace culture is friendly, inviting, and offers ample space for challenging and advancing oneself. It is definitely an environment where you can be rewarded for working hard and taking ownership and pride in your work. Everyone has a lot of control over their own domains, which is for some people and not others. Highly recommended to anyone who is looking to challenge him or herself and can pave their own way, as at this place you're only limited by your own ambitions.

Minpunten

As a smaller company you may miss out on some of the benefits of a large technology company, but in my opinion the pros have always vastly outweighed any of these cons.

Pluspunten

Product eSight develops and licenses energy monitoring software. It is easily among the best in class for this category, and demand for EMS platforms is unlikely to diminish in the foreseeable future. New features are regularly added, so the product is quite dynamic. Culture As a small company, eSight has a very tight-knit, family feel. Coworkers tend to interact positively with one another, and there is a strong sense of comaraderie in the office. Benefits eSight has a 35 hour work week, which is rather unusual. They also provide employees with more paid holidays than is typical in this area. Career opportunities Because eSight is a small company, there are not advancement opportunities popping up continuously. However, there are many opportunities to demonstrate leadership, and eSight likes to promote from within when an opening appears. Additionally, as the company grows new roles are sometimes created. This provides employees with the opportunity to move into related positions.

Minpunten

Benefits Although eSight offers medical insurance, family coverage is quite expensive. There is no dental offered.
