    What’s it like working at Veolia?

    AI summary of recent reviews

    Employees value the supportive colleagues and strong team relationships at Veolia, with many noting that team members are friendly and easy to work with. The company's commitment to safety is highly regarded, with equipment provided without hesitation and safety being a top priority. Employees also appreciate learning and development opportunities, including access to experienced professionals and mentoring, as well as flexible working arrangements that consider individual needs. The employee support available, including mental health resources, share schemes, and training, is also valued.

    However, there are some potential challenges to consider. Management and leadership can be inconsistent across different sites and departments, with varying levels of communication and support. Career progression pathways could be clearer in some areas, and workload can be demanding during busy periods, with resourcing sometimes needing better balance. Communication from upper management could be improved for greater transparency, and as a large organisation, some employees find that processes and paperwork can be complex. Additionally, whilst remuneration is around industry standards, some employees feel there may be room for improvement in certain roles.

    Stay away from this place if you value your mental nearly.
    The good thingsAbsolutely nothing is good at this company.
    The challengesIt is a culture of “rules for thee, but not for me”. A system that is designed to protect executives from scrutiny and complaints. A system which leaves complainants emotionally and psychologically broken.

    Got nothing worked with some good people but not the new management
    The good thingsThe work not the management they are the worst
    The challengesNew management because they have no idea what they are doing
    Human ResourcesThanks for taking the time to leave a review. It's good to hear you've worked alongside some great people - that matters. We're sorry the experience with new management has been so frustrating. Leadership transitions can be tough, and it sounds like this one hasn't gone well. If you're open to it, we'd genuinely like to hear more about what's not working so we can look into it properly. Feel free to reach out to your HRBP directly.
