Good people and pay with burnout risk - Environmental Engineer Yorke Engineering Employee Review

Yorke makes a point of allowing people to do what they love; over my years here, I've given feedback on the responsibilites that I enjoy, that I don't, and what projects I'd like to be involved it - and they've listened. My role has shifted more towards doing when I love. They place a high priority on company culture and work life balannce. They invest a lot in both fostering a community in the workplace and in individual professional development. I understand that community in the workplace isn't for everyone, but personally, I want to work in a place where I know and enjoy time with my coworkers. They have optional clubs, activities, happy hours, and sports to be involved in. 5 times/year they require staff to travel into the headquarters for meetings, but those are the only mandatory events. The daily hours/schedules are flexible, and they respect PTO/time outside of work hours. They pay very well.

Holidays and PTO are pretty limited. Other reviews complain about nepotism...yes, it is a family owned company, started 30 years ago by the current owner, but I have never see nepotism shown in a unfair/concerning way.

Good work experience, pay, and collogues

Filling out a timesheet can be tricky, fast paced, can sometimes be lacking in guidance, stingy with overhead, in need of more senior project management, infrequent holidays.
