Pros

The best reason to work for Oldcastle Architectural is the opportunities for professional development. They highly encourage employees to obtain additional training by attending workshops, seminars and conferences related to employees' field(s) of interest. They are committed to making sure employees have the most up-to-date industry knowledge.

Cons

Management is much like a male fraternity. If you look like the guys in charge and talk like the guys in charge, you will probably go far.

Pros

Fellow blue collar workers make APAC a somewhat tolerable place to work. The team members tend to work well together and get the job done. Lower level managers take care of their employees and ensure strong team cohesion. During heavy over time periods most crews take care to ensure safety and environmental concerns are met above anything else. The more we work the safer we become. Take time to evaluate the situation.

Cons

The downside begins with too many upper management with instructions. You will at some point get two sets of instructions from two upper managers. Ethics are a problem with management because production comes before quality every time. Not on paper and not in the Presidents mind because he is kept in the dark about most problems. They are "worked out". Project management without saying to do something unethical will push to do something unethical. These unethical project managers then become upper management in the form of a VP. Scheduling is never consistent and you may not know you are working the weekend until Friday at 5:00 pm.
