Pros

good worklife balance. company has healthy worklife balance. they implement systems to encourage an efficient work hour balance in case you need to go over your regular 40 hr weekly mark they have you submit a request in order to approve overtime hrs I think this is helpful as it keeps people from regularly exceeding the overtime mark and it helps you to balance your schedule.

Cons

Salaries can be lower compared to other trades in commercial construction that are doing similar scope. But still competitive in the mid range bracket.

Business Outlook

Pros

Provides good work/life balance and excellent teams. You can learn a lot and gain very valuable experience. Growth is possible and can be fast in some departments. Thorough training for those in technical roles that competitors do not offer.

Cons

Poor PTO, bereavement, and inclement weather policies. Outdated remote work policy. By-request-only performance reviews that often take months to be scheduled. Low salaries compared to others in the industry. Frugal to a fault at times. Heavy micromanagement. Outdated practices and culture in general.
