Pros

Americon was a semi-known name in the industry was acquired by a large national player - HITT Contracting. Americon had some skeletons which are being properly buried and now a few years into this NYC market, the company is gaining a strong foothold. The work model is demanding but provides huge opportunity for growth, compensation, and aims (successfully) to teach the "right way" to execute project to owner satisfaction (and beyond)

Cons

The (sometimes) bad reputation that the Americon name has prevents the company from really spreading it's wings in this market.

Pros

Compensation and benefits are competitive compared to some general contractors.

Cons

* Poor work-life balance. Weekend work was frequently expected without additional compensation or meaningful recognition. * Role expectations were unclear. As an Assistant Project Manager, I was regularly expected to perform superintendent duties in addition to my own responsibilities, creating unrealistic workloads. * High turnover and frequent leadership changes resulted in inconsistent direction and a lack of support from upper management. * Inexperienced employees were promoted into Project Manager positions without sufficient training or mentorship, which often impacted project execution and placed additional pressure on other team members. * During my pregnancy, I did not feel supported by management. Instead of working with me to plan for maternity leave, I felt increasing pressure through unrealistic expectations and heightened scrutiny, leaving me with the impression that the company preferred I resign rather than take protected leave. This was one of the most disappointing aspects of my experience. * Communication and employee support depended heavily on the individual manager, leading to inconsistent treatment across teams. * Long hours and expectations to constantly be available made it difficult to maintain any work-life balance.
