Pros

- Benefits/401K - Proper pay for the industry

Cons

- “Work hard” culture will not pay off. Company ran by “clique” management and if you’re not liked by them. Start looking elsewhere - No structure in educating actual construction. You will just be a babysitter for trade partners - Great time off benefits, but good luck getting them approved. Then once approved no one will oversee your role. - Timeline schedule always unrealistic. They will drive you down to the ground pointing fingers but no action - Final quarter of fiscal year you will have no work/life balance. They will expect you to work until their numbers are met. 7am-7pm will be a norm. - Seniors/area construction managers have minimal control over actual project management. “Yes, sir. I will get it done” culture with minimal control. - If you have the role of a “Senior construction manager” or “Construction Manager” you will need to take time to learn about construction on your own terms as minimal employees know how to even read plans, create schedules, perform RFIs/Submittals. Again, not a real title for the job but the company name helps.

Pros

you will have a flexible schedule most of the year.

Cons

It is difficult to trust the people you work with, as they are incentivised to get you to sign off on things, whether they are done or not.

Pros

Was able to do many different jobs and learn a bunch of different departments.

Cons

Management is out of touch with reality. Used to be a great company to work for and they truly cared about their people. It is so unprofessional, micro managed, too many middle managers and no one can make a decision to save their life. The stress, political bs is overwhelming. They spend a ton of money on creating programs and then never get to the users. Everyone they have a new CTO it is major disruption and they always bad mouth the last person that was in the seat. Then they go back to what was done 10 years ago.
