Pros

If you have tons of shares purchased, it must be fantastic getting those returns. Before the crash, they even cashed +100% returns *eye roll*

Cons

They don't actually train you in your job. Experience will be what trains you. Mistakes are treated as a spot to teach or seen as improvable. They're seen as marks to be used against you during negotiations. Your work is what deals with the overwhelmingly stupid projects PCL Denver breaks its back dealing with. There's not plan or strategy with more stock put into it than, "The field/office will deal with it." DON'T TAKE THIS JOB STRAIGHT OUT OF CSU OR CU. IT IS NOT FOR SOMEONE WHO IS NEW AT DENVER CONSTRUCTION. You'll see what I mean if you don't heed the advice...
