Pros

Decent Pay and flexible breaks

Cons

Too many office politics. Upper management allows various unethical practices to slip through the cracks. They place their employees in uncomfortable situations and retaliate when they are fearful these practices may be brought to light. There is very little training and management has a very strong “sink or swim” mentality. There is no teamwork and the corporate office has a lot to learn about running a legitimate corporation. I would stay far away from here if you can. The pay is not worth the stress of dealing with an office filled with so many unethical individuals.

Pros

You get exposed to everything related to construction. Everyone is very helpful in getting you up to speed with the project and gives you a good start to being a well-rounded APM if your career goals is to be in the Construction Project Management industry. They also take summer interns to their main headquarters to meet the executives and other interns, good way to network.

Cons

If you're an engineering major, you don't really get to practice much engineering knowledge you learn in school, but you still learn a lot of new things in construction.

Pros

Above average medical, dental and vision benefits

Cons

Beyond expectations. Minimal training to be proficient with the expectations. No concept on family time vs work. GM is all about sales and has no construction knowledge. He has no idea on what it takes to do the work and get projects completed. Plumbing and Mechanical division field personel had their own agendas and does not work for the company. Sheet metal division has a great superintendent and good GF. Building Automation only has 1 person that knows all. The unfortunate thing is Harris expects Josh to be all do all. This company runs on the principle complete 90% and spend another 30% to get to the finish line.
