DC Water Reviews

Without a doubt, the worst job I have ever had in my entire life. I was miserable every single day. Leadership is condescending and dismissive. They truly make a concerted effort to show you the lack of value they have for you. They will never consider your ideas or suggestions. You should expect to work in an environment with antiquated an outdated processes. It does not need to be a difficult job, however, there is zero training because no one knows how to do anything. Leadership insist on making things entirely more complicated than necessary. Even with an impressive salary, I would not return to DC Water if they doubled it.

DC Water has a very toxic environment. They promote the incompetent and harass and/or fire the competent workers. It's a do-as-I-say culture and they penalize employees for coming up with new ideas or thinking outside of the box. If you want a good government position where you can be incompetent and get promoted, then DC Water is the place for you.
