What do you like best about the leadership team?

Leadership Reviews

Very support and technically strong.

Amazing leadership team at TRC.

Seems like they are good

They are open to new ideas, encourage us to think outside the proverbial box, and are supportive and genuinely care about their employees.

Mainly leave you to yourself and check in on projects vs micromanaging us the entire day

Review from Engineering Dept

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership Reviews

Fire the CEO, and hire leadership with people skills. Stop having the company run by acciuntants.

Review from Engineering Dept

A pulse- zero empathy. No commitment to diversity or inclusion. The industry has gitten the message: don't work at TRC. Each pay check coukd be your last.

Communicate clearly with all departments of the business.

Replace with actual managers with skills

culture could always improve here

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Compensation Reviews

The hourly rate and per diem.

Whatevery was agreed while joining i am getting it.

They offer a really generous benefits program.

Health Benefits and 401k benefits

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

Better benefits, health care, retirement

Felt undervalued because they people preach family environment but all they give a hoot about is their numbers. Same typical corporate attitude you have to deal with at a bigger place

Despite increased revenue over the pandemic, numerous employees were laid off, furloughed, or denied raises/bonuses that had been agreed upon months prior. HR attempted to intimidate me when asked about my pay code being below all of my peers, until my manager was able to adjust it 7 months later.

Pay low, expectations high; must jump 24/7 or else.

Review from Engineering Dept

Pay to be more to what standard is in the industry

What are some of the best things about your team?

Team Reviews

Helping whenever require any support.

Good communication and easy to work with

Some member of the team are very experienced and knowledgeable.

Diverse and incredibly smart. We all have strengths and weaknesses, somehow TRC has managed to find the best fit of employees to make a strong and effective team.

Very independent and you do your work and no one bothers you

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Team Reviews

Stop the finger pointing and develop a team approach over a cut throat competitive one.

Review from Engineering Dept

Coworkers and I are called upon to travel often and we always provide accurate and reasonable field data.

Review from Engineering Dept

for the most past my coworkers are fine, but a lot are starting to look elsewhere for work because you can make more money elsewhere than at TRC. a lot of it has to do with the high profit margin that must be met. prices have gone up for our clients, but not for employees. bad morale problem in DEG

Review from Engineering Dept

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Environment Reviews

Work pressure is not there , i get ample of time to complete the given time.

A lot of independence and self direction.

They don't micromanage you really

The overall goal is to make a positive difference/impact in the industry, and I feel that is supported and achieved through the team at TRC.

Get paid for all hours worked and, including travel time, most of the time.

Review from Engineering Dept

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Environment Reviews

Everything, including the leadership, starting with the way my supervisor reacts

Review from Engineering Dept

Actually value employees as resource instead of only money

Improved, honest communication from leadership; an HR team that doesn't see other employees as enemies; competitive wages; a revised performance review process; install a process to review and provide feedback to management; show company values performance rather than gender/race/political beliefs.

it's obvious that the exec team is only worried about profit and that it drives all of their decisions. morale is real low at my office because the corporate folks seemingly have not kept the promises that were given, nor do they seem to care

Review from Engineering Dept

What did you like most about the interview process?

Interviews Reviews

Very convincing about opportunities and very complimentary to get you to join

Simple and quick hiring process

People have seemed friendly until you officially work there for a month

I got to meet with people at all levels so I got a better understating of what they did before jumping onboard.

Not the same since we got acquired

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

Interviews Reviews

Interviewed, then no real follow up like providing you with a mentor

Review from Engineering Dept

Old boys club environment; managers with little experience

What makes you most happy at work?

Outlook Reviews

Making money,and getting experience to go somewhere else.

Review from Engineering Dept

Doing great work with great people.

Love to travel around the us

Being able to share my expertise and make a difference.

The flexibility and I can see my kids

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Outlook Reviews

The company needs to reduce turnover in the department. It reflects poorly when the product is late due to management intervening in the project reducing efficiency and individual contributors quickly leaving within a year due to the culture/environment.

Marketing doesnt reflect experience; oversell

Employees are fleeing the company and are not getting replaced leading to increased burdens on those who remain. Integration between teams is abysmal and different offices are not held to the same performance standards as some offices fail to bring in business and are a drag on others.

Full of promises, delivery lacks

Review from Engineering Dept

promises were not kept. pay needs to be at least equal to the competition in our field (only thing keeping several of us here are the benefits). company vehicles for field employees (standard in our field), a clear cut career path and training, qual cards that were promised. company shirts

Review from Engineering Dept

What do you like best about your company?

Outlook Reviews

The close knit family style even though it's corporate

What would you most like to see improved at your company?

Outlook Reviews

Pay, pay needs be be put inline with market values.
