Add on job skills and learning on Job opportunities exist and allow professional growth, opportunity to work independently and find your own solutions. You have to keep eyes open and be prepared for many challenges (opportunity) naturally existing due to complicated nature and scale of Projects, adrenaline rush is expected; be prepared for the worst if you want to succeed and keep pushing your limits. Those who test the waters by pushing limits have recognition and opportunities and those who want to remain in comfort zone can expect to either remain in same slot or worse be removed.

Dislikes

Higher work loads, appraisal process and evaluation of employee is not clear or may not exist because of lack of growth of business itself and tough market conditions. Though WSP has great Managers there are few bad apples as well, but there does not seem to be clear HR policy for accountability for the same. It is up to the employee to add skills, after certain level of growth for most employees their growth can hit plateau. Since WSP is a very big Organization with independent business units your growth depends on your opportunities in your Unit only. Line Managers have very less contact and seldom give feedback! Feedback is life line of growth and performance but that is not the norm.
