Pros

PTO - 2 weeks Sick - 2 weeks

Cons

They act like they care, but they don't. There is no collaboration and no support. Accounting had to do what Purchasing dept refused to do ( clean up data for new system). Training was terrible. Employee will be nitpicked for any and all mistakes. There's no support and when asked for additional training, provided recommendations on what can the team do to assist, recommendation was knocked off the table and told "accounting is accuracy and attention to detail". They refused to acknowledge the harassment and toxic environment after many discussions. So many other things to list, but do NOT work for this company. TOXIC environment. No TEAM support. No proper training. You're expected to know the organization within 90 days! Part of the 90 days is: meeting the team and getting to know them. They fail to introduce you to the people you're working with. It is YOUR responsibility to initiate these meetings and grow your own relationships. Boss is timid and does not step up. Boss also allows herself to be harassed by her employees. Which is unacceptable!

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.
