Pros

After working for 6 months you receive a performance review and then, if you did well, you will receive a bump in your salary. I received a $3,000 increase which bumped me from $59k to $62k annually

Cons

Most positions like this are hourly, however my company had been recently acquired by Terracon and for whatever reason we were salaried and only received OT if we surpassed 44 hours of *billable* work.

Pros

You have sustainable hours for construction but there is mandatory overtime (The most I’ve done is 51 hours in a week), they pay you enough to live on, it’s good experience, upper management pays lip service to workers rights, there is genuine concern and regulation from management to provide you an emotionally and physically safe place to work, you’re never really rushed to do your job, and you do have the right to stop work

Cons

You need a degree in engineering or geology to move up and you have to threaten to move offices or take another job to get a pay raise. It’s not unionized.
