Always learning - Consulting WAV Group Employee Review

This company is small but mighty. They are primarily a consulting firm, but they have divisions in research, recruiting, public relations, technology development, and they own a publishing company. I was able to learn a lot about each of these components that are fundamental to operating a business.

The pace and intensity of projects is enormous. The firm provides services to CEOs and Board of Directors of their clients, so being responsive and operating at a high level is always required. You need to be a person that is always pushing yourself toward awesomeness.

Respectful-- work in a compassionate environment that values all team members. Engaging-- learn something new every day working with a group of people from diverse professional and educational backgrounds. Rewarding-- receive positive and constructive feedback from coworkers and management, get recognized for your successes and passions. Responsive: give feedback, see results! For example: I care about reducing waste and making a conscious effort to be green. At my request during the first few months of my employment we've added a recycling bin, switched over from disposable coffee pods to reusable filters, and traded paper for cloth hand towels. Great Location-- look out the window at the ocean, maybe take the office dog on a walk to the beach on your break. Relaxed Dress Code-- wear joggers and flip-flops to work if you want, just be clean.

Occasionally stressful-- if you work here, you must understand that you will be working on projects for CEO's of leading companies in real estate and tech. These are billion dollar industries; there is a LOT of pressure to deliver quality work to our clients, so flagrancy and lack of attention to deal are never options. Not to be taken personally: to be transparent, you can expect intensity from management at times. Resilience of character is an asset at this job.
