Good health benefits but little Work-Life Balance

Pros

Great health benefits - second to none. Paid about $60/mo. with a deductible of about $500.

Cons

Base Salary is quite lower than competition as you're expected to invest in the company. Little concern for work-life balance - common for Superintendents, Field Engineers, Project Engineers, and PMs to work over 70 hrs/wk.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. PCL prides itself on providing rich benefit plans to our employees so we are glad to see that you agree! We want to assure you that there is no pressure for our employees to invest when they receive an offer to purchase shares. Your district manager and district HRPD manager would be happy to speak with you about this, and your concerns with work-life balance, should you wish to reach out to them.

Pros

Good people, decent pay, good benefits, and profit sharing.

Cons

Required to work 40 hours per week, but frowned upon if you work less that 55. Most work 60+. High stress work sometimes creates tension between employees.

Thank you for your review. We couldn’t agree more that PCL has great employees and their hard work doesn’t go unnoticed! I spoke with your HR manager and she would love to discuss your concerns further and also get insight on ways to improve our onboarding program. Her door is always open!
