Palpable Score

/ 100
OPAL Fuels publishes unusually candidate-friendly detail for a mid-sized energy operator, including pay ranges on several roles and a consistent benefits package. The main gap is that early-career access exists but is not abundant, and public evidence on training quality and progression for junior hires is mixed.
Pillar 1: Early-career access

Score

10.0
/ 20
  • The company advertises at least one role explicitly marked “Entry Level” (Environmental Analyst) with a relatively low experience bar of 1+ year and a defined pay range.
  • OPAL Fuels’ corporate-facing “Analyst” pathway often starts at 2–3 years (for example, RNG Compliance Analyst), which is early-career-adjacent but not a true graduate entry point.
  • The company’s current JazzHR board shows no active internship or graduate-program roles, and many operational roles require prior mechanical or plant experience.
Pillar 2: Hiring fairness and transparency

Score

14.7
/ 20
  • The company uses a consistent ATS flow (JazzHR) and postings lay out scope clearly, including duties, work hours, location expectations, and reporting lines.
  • OPAL Fuels publishes pay ranges on multiple postings and includes “good faith estimate” language that sets expectations about how offers are set.
  • The company has mixed candidate sentiment in public interview and employer-review pages, which suggests the experience can vary by site or team, and OPAL Fuels does not publish a standard interview process or timelines on the careers site.
Pillar 3: Learning and support

Score

11.7
/ 20
  • The company provides a tuition assistance benefit across roles, which supports skills growth for early-career hires who need structured upskilling.
  • OPAL Fuels explicitly frames at least one analyst role as a “lean team” environment with exposure to senior professionals and executive management, which can accelerate learning when paired with good coaching.
  • The company has negative public feedback that mentions poor training in at least one role, and job descriptions rarely spell out onboarding plans, mentoring, or a review cadence.
Pillar 4: Pay fairness and stability

Score

15.7
/ 20
  • The company posts salary or hourly ranges on multiple roles, including early-career-adjacent analyst work and hourly plant operations roles.
  • OPAL Fuels lists a broad and consistent benefits package in postings and on the careers page, including health coverage, 401(k) match, paid time off, holidays, life insurance, and disability coverage.
  • The company does not publish pay ranges on every role in one central place, and equity or long-term incentive detail is not clearly explained for early-career candidates.
Pillar 5: Early-career outcomes

Score

10.0
/ 20
  • The company has limited public, role-specific evidence on early-career progression such as promotion timelines, internal mobility rates, or examples of junior-to-mid growth tracks.
  • OPAL Fuels has mixed employee sentiment on public review sites, including concerns about training and management in at least one review alongside some positive notes on pay and coworkers.
  • The company’s LinkedIn presence shows ongoing hiring across operational and corporate functions, but public profiles and posts do not provide enough aggregate early-career tenure and step-up patterns to score outcomes higher.
