Generous Perks - Need to "fit in" first.

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

This firm provides great benefits, and generous compensation compared to other private mid-sized companies in the same industry. Their corporate culture encourages a steady work/life balance, establishes a "hip & trendy" work environment while operating on traditional business philosophy that this company is predicated on. Overall, this firm cares for the well-being of each and every one of its employees.

Cons

Prerequisites 1) Fit in to the "big clique" and/or 2) Have connections within the firm. If you meet at least one of the aforementioned prerequisites, you are not only likely to survive the workplace politics, you will also embark on journey of ample career training and growth. If you do not meet either one of the prerequisites, your time will be efficiently spent taking your career elsewhere as the politics in this firm (or at least in your department) will essentially shun your opportunities for career growth and advancement regardless of how great you are. However if you are extremely stubborn as the poster of this review was, you can treat the unfortunate circumstance as an mental training opportunity grow a "thicker skin" and to bolster your resilience against a sea of naysayers. After all, naysayers are everywhere, and they do grow proportionally to the level of extraordinaire that you exude.

Great company with great people, but very few opportunities for advancement

Business Outlook

Pros

Very professional, competent, and friendly people. Everyone from electricians to technical and administrative people are all top-notch. It is nice to work with people who are good at their jobs, and dedicated enough to get the job done in a timely manner. Compared to other companies on the stuffy conservative end of the spectrum - which is very common for construction companies - the atmosphere is pretty relaxed . Good benefits. Some good opportunities for training. A popular one is the "lunch and learn" program (lunchtime training sessions with free lunch.) Good advancement opportunities for project managers and electricians.

Cons

Essentially no opportunities for advancement for technical professionals. Extremely inflexible working hours. Very little positive feedback from management. More politics than such a mature, well established company should have. This is a is a good place for engineers to start their careers, but not to continue them.
