They care professionally and personally

Pros

We work hard but there is always a balance of taking you time needed to recharge. I genuinely feel like Holder cares about me professionally (challenging me, looking out for my career, etc.) but I also feel like they care about me personally and are always making sure "the whole" of me is doing well.

Cons

Because you are given so much responsibility, there can be long hours. There are also a ton of people invested in the company (a ton of people haven't worked anywhere else!) so sometimes there are a lot of people involved in meetings/initiatives.

Holder Construction Response

Thank you for sharing! Our people are our most valuable asset, and we care about your health and wellness, both inside and outside the office. Outside of the office, we encourage associates to find work-life balance that works for them, and to use Paid Time Off to recharge. Inside the office, our culture is built on developing each other. We believe in an organic cycle of growth within the company and look to “hire from within” first. Our associates are continuously presented with new and exciting challenges and career advancement opportunities. This growth strategy is a differentiator for us and part of the reason we do have many associates who decide to work at Holder for their entire career.

Pros

The people truly care about your well being and success in the company and in your personal life and goals. Great communication with higher ups and a great community to work with.

Cons

Lots of work to be done on jobs with not many people to tackle it. Long hours and sometimes tough to keep a work life balance.

Holder Construction Response

Thanks for leaving a review! We’re glad you enjoyed the family feel that Holder’s culture fosters. “Care and Connect” is one of our key cultural attributes and is encouraged amongst peers and between managers and the associates they develop. While work-life balance is difficult industry-wide, we understand it affects associate performance and our success as a company. We care about each associates’ wellbeing and provide benefits, such as Paid Time Off, annual bonus program, Wellness Program, Employee Assistance Program, etc., to help to offset this.
