Pretty standard for a large General Contractor.. a lot to be desired though.⁴ - Project Engineer Holder Construction Employee Review

- Terrible work-life balance, with the excuse "it comes with the industry". Personnel are given lots of PTO day, but are shamed for taking 3 day weekends and have to negotiate for longer breaks. - Lot of the project management personnel have the "work no matter what" mentality; I was chastised for not being readily available while at home sick on multiple occasions. Of course when COVID hit, this took a complete 180 (felt like out of schedule concerns rather than employee health though as employees were consistently asked to break company policy for the sake of the project) - 11-12 hour shifts are to be expected, pretty standard for the industry though. - Teams can become very clique-y, as personnel get recycled from previous jobs.. leading to unwelcoming environments with new projects. - No form of development or training. New hires are given a list of "key skills" and expected to either develop them on their own OR seek out a "development partner" who is often too busy or unwilling to provide constructive feedback. When actually given, the feedback is inconsistent from manager to manager. - The moving services used for relocations are notorious for losing and or breaking things. There is compensation available for these situations, but it just ends up being a major inconvenience that takes months to resolve.
