      Pros

      Great talent to surround yourself with, both peers and superiors. Excellent project opportunities that create resume-building experience. Wonderful benefits. Great friendships/community can be developed through first class culture. Compensation is competitive.

      Cons

      The work-life balance in operational roles is not great. Long hours will be required, some projects being worse than others. However, if you have a "support" role that isn't directly tied to day-to-day project operations, you will have much better work-life balance. These roles are few and far in between, so most of those who stay with DPR for the long haul seem to end up in one of these roles. Hard in a company of this size not to get pigeon-holed and have your career growth stunted through no fault of your own. Certain employees that have more vocal/diligent superiors will get promoted/raises more quickly than those with more relaxed superiors.

      Fast-paced environment (construction industry in general) may not be for everyone.
