Pros

Excellent growth prospects, the company has carved out a leadership position in a growing industry , and it's staying ahead of the competition. Building strong safety culture, pockets of talented people. Founders and leadership get credits for positioning the company where it is now. Company offers good benefits.

Cons

Unprofessional treatment of employees. Employees are only used, never valued or empowered. Inability to delegate authority; all decisions have to go through CEO. Clunky, bureaucratic, unclear decision-making processes. Management style based on intimidation, not collaboration. Rosy reviews are likely written by HR. Best people end up leaving for better opportunities and less toxic environment.

Pros

Enviva now has a leadership team that is committed to improving by providing the right resources for employees and facilities. The new culture being built is a 180 of what it was a few years ago.

Cons

Corporate support still sometimes out of touch with sites.
