EWI employees provide candid testimonials about working at the company, including thoughts on their coworkers and work culture.
Emily Austin
Project Manager in Springfield, Missouri, office
“Science, safety, grit, and ingenuity is what we do at Environmental Works, Inc. After ten years working with EWI in this industry, I wouldn’t want to work anywhere else. We love what we do and do what we say without bureaucracy and hierarchy. The structure of our business is an inverted pyramid putting the workers and doers at the top.”
William Walker
Field Services Supervisor in Springfield, Missouri, office
“One of the things I love about this company is that on a daily basis I get to work with the most talented and hardworking bunch of people that I’ve ever worked with.”
“I’ve had some great leadership. The people that I work with have helped me achieve the goals that I’ve set. I’ve had good training and people that are willing to train.”
Max Hoffman
Environmental Scientist in Springfield, Missouri, office
“Getting to work with other people that share the same interests in natural sciences makes the job.”
Damian Evans
Field Technician in Kansas City office
“My coworkers are great. They’re one of the reasons I don’t mind coming in to work at all. As long as you’ve got the right people, I feel like you’ll hop in any tank with them. Because you know you’ve got their back and they’ve got your back.”
Aaron Stephens
Driller in St. Louis office
“There’s a lot of flexibility. I don’t like a consistent 9-5 type job. It gets boring for me. Spontaneity and different variations of work keeps things interesting for me. Not to mention the different traveling you get to do.”
“You get to work with some good people who just want to do a good job and do the right thing. That’s a big part of it.”
“My coworkers are great. Just immediately speaking, us drillers are pretty tight. We always try to hang out when we can.”
“Even when I was in the field, there were opportunities to go into a supervisor position. I haven’t seen a lack of opportunities. If people see a lack of opportunities, it’s because they’re not looking or trying.”
Stephen Collier
CDL Driver in Springfield, Missouri, office
“I’ve worked for a lot of people in my life and I’ve been a lot of places, and I’ve never been with a better bunch of people. And I know a lot of people say that, but it’s very true. I always look at a situation like, would I want you in a fox hole behind me? And 99 percent of the people at EWI, I would get in that fox hole with them. I trust them with my life.”
Paulina Tinoco
Associate Environmental Engineer in Kansas City office
“I get to learn a lot of different things, and that is one of my favorite things to do.”
“There’s no one that’s super selfish or lazy like some of the people I’ve worked with in the past. It’s totally different here at EWI because if you have a problem people will go out of their way to try and help you figure it out.”
