PCL Construction reviews

Probably the greatest benefit to working for PCL is the employee ownership model that allows salaried employees to share in the profits of the company. Not only is this a great way of compensating long-term employees, but it is part of the culture that fosters good stewardship of the company and employees that care about the work. PCL is also highly involved with local charities and even allows employees to occasionally volunteer for service during scheduled work days, effectively getting paid to volunteer. I could go on about the great people and culture here, but it is no wonder that PCL has been a regular on Fortune's Best Places to Work list for eleven years in a row. I have thoroughly enjoyed my three years working at PCL and I am so glad that I was able to find my way here.

Being 100% employee owned at all levels (CEO to file clerks), everyone is responsible for the success, or failure, of the company. There is a level of commitment that everyone shows towards the company and one another that I have not seen anywhere else; it is an amazing culture I can only attribute to the employee ownership model. Even though it is a large company, it has a small company feel. I believe that management truly cares about the employee. There are long hours required at times, but my managers have always pushed work / life balance and at times have forced me to take time off when I was working too much.
