EnSafe Inc.

Upon my initial employment with Ensafe, I was afforded only one day of on-boarding prior to being catapulted into the field.  It was made very clear to me that I was hired simply to fill an on-site seat so Ensafe could continue to bill their customer and had no consideration for new employee orientation.  In the unfortunate event you should need the support of HR, don't expect much help.  They were nearly a month late getting my paycheck to me as well as my expense reports and reacted with complete indifference when I attempted to inquire about the issue, among others.  In a conversation with one of the Company's principals, he made a derogatory statement regarding the size of my genitals and insulted my intelligence.  In this position (Hartford Office) you will receive absolutely no support in your position what-so-ever.  There is no on-site HR or management should you have any questions.  The job looks nice and the people seem friendly, but once you come on-board, it's a completely different story.  Think twice before applying.  Don't waste your time.

I am contracted out to Pratt & Whitney in East Hartford, CT; Springdale, AK; Daro, TX; Middletown, CT; and Lansing, MI.  I thoroughly enjoy my work and am currently and am an experienced SAP TEM lead training administrative coordinator for all my clients.

However, since my husband took a job in Orlando, FL, I have been downgraded to part-time, although it was agreed before I left CT that I could perform most of my job remotely.

EnSafe is a very nurturing company and provides decent wages and benefits along with generous profit sharing.  I just can't afford to have a part time job only at this stage of my career.

Great place for EHS folks to learn or bolster their skills and career. If you're serious about hitting the ground running to be fully immersed in S&H then I highly recommend EnSafe. EnSafe works on a wide variety of projects to build a well rounded professional competent in safety and industrial hygiene practice and implementation. I spent 6 years at EnSafe straight out of university and upon leaving was light years ahead of peers as a technical professional upon leaving. Upward movement at EnSafe is unlimited and based upon the eagerness of the person. I highly valued my time at EnSafe and would go back in a heartbeat!

Zero accountability.
Poor/negative annual performance review criteria.
An employee-owned firm, but appears Principals/Associate Principals are the true owners.
Horrible management personnel in some areas.  (Negative management.)
No annual salary increase short of COL unless "nominated" by someone for an increase.
High turnover, unless you're a Principal.
Good job security, but forget advancement.

Every year the company says they're going to do this or that, and try to do better for employees.  But it seems like they can't stay the course on any big effort.  (wishy-washy)
Some of the Principals who manage and/or lead the firm, should not be managers or leaders of people.

The health and safety group requires around 75-80% unrestrictive travel across the united states for young consultants. This makes having a life outside of work extremely difficult. The compensation is on the low end of the spectrum. That being said, the projects I worked on were extremely rewarding and technically complex. I feel i gained 10 years of experience in three. Additionally, i was given many opportunities to promote and grow within the company, however i felt my compensation never really caught up to the competition.

You couldn’t pay me a million dollars to work here. The management was incompetent and always prioritized profit over employee happiness/safety/mental health. When things were busy, the workload would often be so fast-paced that you weren’t able to take a single break. On top of the ridiculous working conditions, I felt that management was very dismissive and belittling. If you’re looking for a job, do yourself a favor and skip EnSafe.


The positive side about the company is that you learn a lot about Environmental and Safety in a hazardous working environment. The downside of this company is that another project is not soon available after one ends.  There is a lot of waiting for work or having to subsidize through other means.  I think the company could do a better job of lining up projects to avoid the wait.  Also, I think a pay raise for field workers should be considered.

Not a great place to start out with, you need to be a favorite of someone to do a good job if entry level. The work place culture isn't good as a person who does field work. Management is not good, they are spread too thin and cycle out of the company leaving an entry level person with less stability and direction. 

A typical day at work was full of camaraderie and short deadlines. I learned different skills while employed and the staff was very helpful, ready to help with any issue. Managers were fair in their assessments, including pay raises and bonuses. The overall work culture is professional and very personable and approachable staff. The hardest part of the job was trying to meet everyone’s needs. The most enjoyable part of the job were the people.

Administrative staff is treated like absolute garbage.  Absolutely no accountability of upper management, no respect of time and extremely unvalued.  Would never recommend working for this company. They paint a pretty picture upon initial employment, but it doesn't take a genius to figure how disrespectful management is to the administrative staff. The field techs are treated in much the same way, but I will only speak for my own experience and the admins before me.
