Pros

Salary appears to be higher than competitors

Cons

All of these reviews are rigged, zero work/life balance, zero leadership only bosses. What happened to respect? What happened to the golden rule? They say they care but they don't.

Pros

Interviewing during the pandemic certainly presented challenges, but like every other challenge, Suffolk has it figured out. And the company is full of people with positive energy. Have yet to meet someone with a negative, or even average, outlook on things. Hard to find that in this industry. Good benefits, with plenty of options for time off for work/life balance. And great portfolio of work.

Cons

Wish I had found them sooner.
