Pros

Good experience right out of school, develops the ground work for construction management—dependent on your site team. Expense free living is beneficial in paying off student loan debts. Take safety very seriously.

Cons

Poor training program—really lacking. No work/life balance. Unfair compensation, too dependent on bonus, end up working lots of overtime for free. Directionless culture, no cohesion from site to site. Misleading in the interview process, they talk a big game but don’t preform. Lack any sense of organizational efficiency—redundant, out dated, slow to move and boring.

Blattner Company Response

We appreciate the feedback of your previous time with Blattner. We do take safety seriously because we value each of our employees and we're glad that you recognized this during your time with us. It’s unfortunate that your past time with the company isn’t what we’d expect at any time for any of our employees, but know that we have and will continue to make improvements for our employees and the company as we truly care about our people and their feedback. We’ve recently made updates to our training programs that incorporate better technology and teaching methods to improve the experience as well as the educational content. Also, we have a transparent promotion process that is available for our employees to read that can be accessed on our employee portal or by contacting human resources (for current employees). Additionally, we understand the demands of the construction industry and try to set these expectations during the hiring process to make potential new employees aware of it.
