Pros

A lot of flexibility I was not expecting this early in my career. Supportive work environment from the most senior employees through the most junior. An ability to stay relatively local. Ability to work from home. A wide variety of projects grants exposure to many industries and interesting people.

Cons

A wide variety of clients includes the bad with the good. Compensation could grow at a faster rate. Field work in the winter in MN - can't help that but it's still there.

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.
