      Current Employee - Project Executive in London, England

      I have been working at Veolia full-time for more than 2 years

      Pros

      As an employee for Veolia, I have many benefits (Financial and health benefits) Working for Veolia has taught me how to work autonomously and I am encouraged to take initiative in my work

      Cons

      I can't think of any downsides for me, Veolia is a large company and I work in the head office, and I think experiences vary based on location, role and manager.

      I worked at Veolia full-time for more than a year

      Pros

      Working inside petrochemicals/gas plants meeting skilled tradesmen and staff were helpful and friendly mostly, was able to progress and given training but regrettably didn't stay long enough to use hpwj.

      Cons

      Wages are a little bit low considering work can be in a dangerous environment. Need to work extra hours to make decent money!

      Advice to Management

      Thanks for the opportunity your better than the rest I'd work here again.

      Pros

      Good work life balance. Offices are nice to work in.

      Cons

      Central direction from the parent group can be very frustrating. Also a very siloed old busness which can make things difficult when working with operational staff on central IT projects.

      Cons

      Salary may not always be up to expectation. Although the many changes which take place within the company are mostly beneficial, sometimes they are not always welcomed by employees. Many employees have been made redundant due to changes within the company.

      Advice to Management

      Look into salaries, and make sure that salaries are fair for all staff within the department.

      Pros

      Pay, twilight hours and some other drivers

      Cons

      management have no transport experience , safety can be a second thought if something urgently needs doing , other drivers are quick to pass jobs on but refuse to put their worth in when needed

      Advice to Management

      Safety is paramount in all jobs, unfortunately I had the pleasure of having my license put at risk on numerous occasions despite complaining about certain procedures that were not dealt with, almost a year later, they are talking about it but not solving it

      Approves of CEO

      I have been working at Veolia full-time for more than 2 years

      Pros

      Good opportunities within a growing and extremely quick paced organisation. The company is very agile and quick to adapt to new technologies and try new things. A great focus has been placed on analytics and digitization to drive the organisation forward. Great directors who are very open to new ideas and a general culture within the organisation that is very interested to learn, adapt and improve.

      Cons

      The overall strategy is good but greater focus is needed on certain projects/aspects to deliver the strategy in a more efficient way - Recent changes within the organisation seem to be acknowledging this and should improve this.

      Advice to Management

      The overall strategy is good but greater focus is needed on certain projects/aspects to deliver the strategy in a more efficient way.
