Pros

Great pay and benefits compared to other similar large general contractors.

Cons

Zero work life balance. Executive’s and Upper level management are so disconnected from what it takes to run project’s. Each project team has one or two very intelligent and experience personnel, but the rest are clueless.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Providing competitive compensation and benefits is one of the many ways that we take care of our people, and as we know building complex projects can take a lot of energy, we hope you are taking advantage of our time off and wellness benefits as you need them. Building team members, relationships, and buildings is what we are focused on, so we appreciate hearing how you think we can improve. We encourage you to discuss your situation with your coach and local leadership so that they can support you.
