Pros
Good place to start your career. Very low lay-off potential. Good company fame and reputation. Variety of projects. Brown bags and free lunch sometimes. Safety centered.
Cons
Slow advancement opportunities. No value for your hard work. No difference between those who put extra efforts and those who don't. Almost 1/3 of my coworkers have left the company.

Overall, friendly and helpful employees

6:30 a.m. start time was a tough adjustment, but I ultimately got used to it.
I did cry at the end of my time there, because I knew I would miss the people.

Thank you so much for leaving a review! We're so glad your internship experience at Kleinfelder was a positive one ... we hope you'll be able to return some day!
- lovely coworkers
- some really cool projects since Kleinfelder wins lots of different types of projects! thankfully i had good relationships with the project managers, but peers that don't have a long history don't have enough work flow or don't get to work on projects they want to
- very caring boss
- flexible work from home policy
Cons
- incredibly repetitive sometimes
- inconsistent work and stress related to staying billable
- drab and uninspiring workplace energy
- lots of non-optional travel
- anyone other than my boss and direct peers was not caring
- it's all just a bit corporate and no one is really in love with what they're doing
- barely got raises consistent with inflation
