Pros

You get reasonable amounts of experience and can get exposure to different sides of the business. Work/life balance seems to really depend on your group. Salary uncompetitive, benefits are decent

Cons

Basically takes 5 years if you’re entry level to get anywhere. Mid-senior staff have more opportunity it seems.

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.
