Pros

Terracon is an employee-owned company with excellent benefits. They have built a great safety-first culture with care and compassion for employees. As a geotechnical practitioner, Terracon has a wealth of experts across the country that are more than willing to share their expertise with local offices to help assure team success. Nobody else in town can offer that!

Cons

As with most large companies, onboarding can feel a little overwhelming.

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.
