Pros

Good employee benefits Good company vision and policies but a lot is left to the discretion of your line manager who can alter your experience of and within the company if they don't like anything about you. Excellent opportunities in house but line managers can block your opportunities if they make a business case for it even without compensating you.

Cons

Opportunities depend on your team manager. Hard work is not rewarded, popularity and internal politics are.

Hi, thank you for your review. It's great to hear you mention many of the things you enjoyed about working at Veolia but we're disappointed that your experience was not fully positive. We are concerned by some of your comments as we want everyone to be able to reach their full potential. I will ensure that this is fed back to the relevant teams to action and address so that we can continue to improve colleagues experiences. May we wish you all the best in your future employment. Kind regards, Veolia Talent Acquisition Team.

Pros

You get to work as much as you want with no work life balance Ability to do everything since you’ll be stranded at a remote site alone

Cons

Sent an email today of raises to the entire company. This email was fake and an internal test. Raises this year were already less than inflation. Company is proud to not plan things. Managers leave on vacation with no handover process or telling employees

Pros

Good benefits and work location

Cons

Veolia is a highly politicised and culturally weak organisation. In Australia, at least, the executive leadership team is there to protect themselves and are not interested in employee wellbeing. It has a managing director who mocked the workers' compensation claim of a senior leader who had a heart attack.
