Energy Exemplar Reviews

Classic merger issues - increased pricing, consolidation, talent loss, drop in customer support Remote management from Australia out of touch Very top heavy, with positions filled from outside rather than internal candidates Poor benefits Management moves at glacial pace for any changes Outside consultants hired for many things ”startup feel” for a 20+ year old company means underpaid/ overworked employees- with no % options in company

The biggest issue is the leadership culture. Leaders react impulsively rather than making measured, thoughtful decisions. This reactive behavior trickles down and creates instability, confusion, and mistrust among employees. Feedback is frequently delivered in a harsh or emotionally charged manner, sometimes contradicting previous guidance and with no support to solve the issue. Priorities shift without warning, and employees often feel blamed for problems caused by poor planning. This unpredictability creates a toxic atmosphere where people feel on edge, hesitant to speak up, and unsure about expectations. Most of the staff is burnt out and frustrated. Little to no career path to move up unless you play corporate politics extremely well and willing to endure a lot of psychological unsafe treatment by leadership to meet unrealistic expectations.
