Pros

The company offers steady work and consistent hours, along with valuable opportunities to gain hands on experience in trench safety and daily operations. There is a supportive direct manager who genuinely encourages employee growth, and the team oriented environment is strengthened by coworkers who collaborate well and support one another.

Cons

There is a lack of transparency in hiring and promotion decisions, making it difficult for employees to understand how advancement opportunities are determined. Despite strong performance and experience, upward mobility feels limited, and there is a perception of favoritism influencing management decisions. Recent leadership changes have further impacted morale, leaving many employees feeling discouraged. As a result, those who consistently go above and beyond may feel undervalued or taken advantage of.
