A great company, supportive and stretching culture where you can grow yet still be yourself.

Pros

A fast growing company that can give you the opportunity to take on new responsibilities and learn across all geographies. Engaged and smart people who genuinely care about doing their best work. Great pension and benefits package for all staff and yet they are still humble about themselves which is great. Huge egos don't tend to thrive here.

Cons

The core company values are still present however with the current pace of (needed) change they need to be more strongly enforced as people feel challenged to deliver and 'Respect' can be less evident.

WM has got steadily worse since I joined two years ago.

Pros

The pension is very good.

Cons

Since the company got bought by Hellman Friedman working for WM has been a disappointing experience. Salary increases and bonuses have been completely decimated and moral is at an all time low. It is such a shame as it used to be such a good company to work for. As a Data Analyst my two years have been a struggle to be recognised over the heads of Analysts who are rewarded far better.
