Bolton & Menk

From my time at Bolton & Menk I quickly gathered a sense of care that they have in their work and their employees. My office was filled with nice and respectful people and it was a very positive learning environment. They have an emphasis on quality over quantity, which very well suits my work style. The management was very organized, and everything seemed to be in order. The work/life balance is good and there is no pressure to overwork yourself. The only thing that I would classify as a "negative" with this company is the fact that it is smaller and, therefore, takes on smaller projects. One positive thing that counteracts this is the fact that they are growing quickly and have added around 8 offices in the last 5 years and are expanding to other parts of the country. Perhaps in time, maybe a decade or two, this company may be taking on larger infrastructure projects. As a whole, I enjoyed my time at Bolton & Menk and hold the company in high regard. 

I really enjoyed my time at Bolton & Menk! The people were super friendly and fun to be around, and the company was very flexible with working locations (onsite, at home, different offices, etc.). The hours were good and I had the opportunity to work overtime. The work-life balance was great, good work culture, benefits were pretty good and people are recognized for their hard work. My supervisor was very encouraging, and I had a lot of creative freedom to think outside the box. Bolton & Menk has been name one of the best 150 places to work in Minneapolis/St. Paul for years, and I can attest to that. 

I would return to Bolton & Menk in a heartbeat if the opportunity came about.

I enjoyed my job for the most part, but ran into problems with some when it came to people being unfriendly, specifically at the Metro offices and the Work Group leaders and/or higher up positions in the company. They tend to be always annoyed or something and just unfriendly. They are set in their ways. I didn't ever feel welcome and people kept to themselves and always seemed stuck-up. There was also always a lack of processes, it seemed like everything was done at the last minute. They always expected support staff to drop everything they are working on to meet their deadlines. I always felt bad for those people.

This company is great to work for but the management at the Burnsville office is very hard to get along with.  You must be able to deal with another admin who shows up late, is lazy, will improperly train you but will get praise from managers.  Managers do not make new people welcome, they do not like change, and will not listen to process changes. You will have no Management support or training but you will be expected to be proactive and anticipate the needs of management.

Challenging and invest in their workforce. Invite you in as family and a excellent compensation and benefits. Opportunities to develop department and program-wise. Worth the 45 min drive each way,

Good work/life balance with proactive fun group of employees and good benefits. There is a good diversity of project types. Leadership is generally willing to listen and follows through on initiatives.  Leadership is sometimes less available than desired and it can create work flow challenges.

The company I worked for was acquired by Bolton & Menk. During the process, a lot of good people left because the new policies were somewhat ridiculous. The pay and benefits were awesome, but it seemed like there was very little planning done. 

There was never a day that was really hectic.  Everybody did their jobs, and did them well.   If you needed to leave for personal reasons there were no questions asked,

I enjoy my time here. plenty of guidance in learning new software and everyone is very helpful. Very regulation oriented which took some getting used to after my previous job.

This was the best company I have had the privilege of working for. The work culture and management involvement is 1st class. I wish them the ultimate success as they are on the right track and far exceed expectations.
