Pros
HR is continuously looking to improve communication and clarity; curiosity, risk, passion and drive are rewarded; wonderful people work here. This job attracts dynamic talent and caring, friendly people; there is a clear emphasis on culture and diversity developing right now. I hope to see it continue. I was constantly surrounded by opportunities to grow and develop and was promoted multiple times.
Cons
Lacks tight, cohesive vision at the highest leadership level across departments - too much going on all the time. There's a heavy emphasis on innovation right now that feels new and exciting at the top but confusing and exhausting for the lower level employees. In the long run, there is a far greater payoff when employees can focus in a stable environment and work towards consistent goals without so many distracting priorities. There are some concerted DE&I efforts underway that I fear will lose steam given how white our company and leadership still are. I hope WES continues building momentum in this area as they can achieve great things with a MORE diverse staff and especially leadership.
