First and foremost, the health benefits are nearly useless. If you need usable heath coverage, this job does not provide it. A large number of local doctors will not accept the health plan that the company has chosen.
There is no functional HR department. HR consists of a few local employees, who are predominately unreachable, and then a larger outsourced department that does not respond to requests. I had coworkers who were harassed at work, and ENGIE has no framework to address critical issues like those. HR requests are entirely ignored or swept under the rug.
Tech support is a huge issue as well. My entire department was WFH, however IT consists mostly of outsourced contractors, and they do not have sufficient knowledge about internal systems to be able to address problems. As such, internal systems are down constantly, which is a nightmare when your performance is judged on production metrics. You will not be given the basic tools you need to accomplish your job here.
The salaries are low, even by local standards. Raises are mostly non-existent and bonuses were very rare in my department. When we did receive bonuses, they were often insultingly low (occasionally as little as $50). The work culture is toxic, the managers are unsupportive, and in lower-level positions you will be expected to work overtime on a regular basis.
I quit my job here because the company was committing wage theft. My department expected employees to complete time-consuming administrative tasks off the clock, even though I was only making minimum wage. You constantly have to fight for lost hours, incorrect paychecks, etc.
