Pros

Always got jobs, Per diem is a big plus if you can bank it and can make up for the low wage. Flexible about sites you are on. Company outings were always fun. Amazing price for family health insurance

Cons

Nepotism is strong at the MN regional office. Favorites. No accountability for all roles senior managers to apprentice. "Toxic" work place, Gossip and rumors' rule over results. Extremely underpaid for MN journeymen.

Pros

Flexibility Awesome People Culture Development Job Security Work Life Balance

Cons

Don't have many at this time other than sitting at a desk all day can be tough. However we have a extremely nice office space so there are tons of opportunities to switch up the scenery and its nice to be able to go on walks around the building to take a break!

Pros

Strong family culture and people genuinely care about each other and enjoy working together, even in a high stress environment Leadership is very accessible and down to earth; no “elite” feel, and leaders regularly engage with employees at all levels Opportunities for internal growth and career progression is real for those who perform and take ownership High level of trust and autonomy in roles, especially in leadership positions Flexible work environment when possible; leadership understands real life needs while still supporting field teams

Cons

Company wide standards and pace of change can feel overwhelming, especially when balancing regional needs and multiple sources of information
