AC Disaster Consulting

I am so proud to say that I work for AC Disaster Consulting. Being able to see the direct impact we have for the clients we work for is so rewarding. The leadership is very understanding of everyone's circumstances and are willing to work with you to make everything work. 
The job I have is remote-based, but I have been working onsite for the majority of my time with the company. The perk of this is that I can have facetime with my peers and managers, which is always better for for collaboration and cooperation. When I am working from home I have the benefit of having a more flexible workday. People may fear that with the "remote" base that there will not be structure, but in fact the days are very structured once meetings and deadlines are factored in. 
Expectations are clearly laid out.
The most difficult part of the job would be the sudden surges- as it would be expected working in the EM field. It can be a slight strain on balancing work-life, but you are rewarded for the hard work and never overlooked.

Progressive company, lots of aspiring personnel within. A new company, between the full time staff there was a lot of confusion between HR and expectations on deployments, and also a lot of waste of money on deployments. Understaffing on projects and extremely, "high out of this world" expectations for a small team of four. 
Budget cuts had led to unfair staff cutting, debris coordinator needs to learn proper management skills. HR also had issues with taxes involving different states impacting each employee on projects away from their home state. Caused panic and confusion. Lots of favoritism played within this organization, VERY CLICKY and there is preference towards other employees. A true double standard is a great way to describe management. Also, unfair compensation for a few select employees. After being, "called out", HR corrected. Full time employees talk about others behind their back, including their direct management on project sites. New company-very dramatic- be very cautious.

Blatant deprioritization of communication reflects poor internal coordination—a major red flag about company culture. It's not difficult to send a quick, professional response. If you're "moving fast", at least respect candidates' time by sending a timely rejection instead of stringing them along with silence after follow-up emails.

On top of that, the job postings and initial screening process lacked basic clarity—no timeline details at all. Worse, they required a year or more of emergency management experience for an internship, which completely misses the point of what internships are for: building experience, not filtering out new talent.

Internships should be about fostering the next generation of leaders, not gatekeeping opportunities with absurd requirements, disorganized processes, and a total lack of regard for candidate communication. I expected more from an organization that claims to focus on compassion and community.

If you enjoy working in a fast-paced and challenging environment, ACDC is the place for you.  In the year I've been here, I've grown exponentially with this company.  Because we are a small business I have been allowed to work with all departments in the firm and see the inner workings of our company's operations.  When I was first hired, my biggest concern was the change from working at an office to working remotely.  Would I feel motivated to show up for work every day?  Would I still be able to connect with others easily?  ACDC has created a fun and collaborative virtual environment, where I'm talking to others more and being more productive than I have at any previous job.  I truly feel appreciated here and trust that I have a clear path of growth and support from my coworkers and managers.

I love working at AC Disaster.  I have done both work from home and field operations and I am very happy with both.  The expectation is minimum 40 hours billable per week and you will easily reach this threshold.   The leadership team is outstanding.  They are extremely knowledgeable about working in emergency management and want to help you grow your skills.  While at the same time listening to your feedback and making you feel like your contributions are valuable.  The people who work he are outstanding professionals and the team environment is top notch.  

I've worked for ACDC several times.  Neither time did I expect the work would last longer than their contract.  I was right - no harm, non foul, released on good terms as expected.

However, the website continued to post many positions identical to mine, and also relatable, and I got zero consideration from HR.  Applied to many, no response.

No consideration is given to personnel who have worked for ACDC and then separated on good terms/as expected.  The rate was good, the work good, the company's attention to HR (or screening out past employees who don't fit a diversity profile) are unprofessional.

I haven't been here long, but so far I have to say I am thoroughly impressed with the company - the people, the structure, the culture, and the drive for excellence that seems prevalent on every level of the organization. Leadership places an emphasis on involvement and growth, giving unique opportunities to all staff to be a part of something great! As a newer, small company, the firm is growing quickly and it's pretty easy to see why. They treat their staff the way they treat clients - respectfully, with a humble approach to the entire team's involvement in the frequent "big firm" successes. Seriously, this company is moving and shaking and I'm excited to be a part of it....

AC Disaster offers WFH with travel based on client projects. This is one of the few companies I've worked for that truly values its employees and makes investments in their staff via trainings, equipment, conferences, etc. I feel valued by my superiors and I have a great sense of security in my role. 

It is emergency management so often the work requires many hours but that is industry standard.

Medical premium for staff is 99% paid by ACDC. Adding spouse or dependents makes the monthly cost prohibitively expensive. 

With AC Disaster Consulting, I have had the most wonderful opportunities to augment my current skillsets and acquire new skillsets needed to advance in my career. The culture of the company very much supports team members in taking on new challenges and learning through hands-on experience. Because of this, ACDC team members are distinguished by their innovation, competencies, and their ability to adapt. Those are exactly the type of people you want to work with in a fast paced environment. 

The work was simple, easy and humanitarian. My manager has an off hands approach that makes working here really cool. I have had roles that are demanding and overwhelming but this role has been healing and a bit boring (but in a good way). I would suggest working here and not taking the peaceful experience for granted :)
