Pros

Kokosing is family owned and operated and they have created a work culture that is family oriented. They care about the well being of their employees over their bottom line.

Cons

The industry, as a whole, is a grind. You can easily work 50-60 hours a week. Owners of projects have got so tight on budgets, but also tighter on schedules so we are required to perform more work with less of a staff in a shorter amount of time. The industry is thriving with a lot of projects going out to market and companies are getting more and more competivie in order to get the project and often times the only way to get a lower number is to reduce staff/GCs/GRs which can require a lot more effort by the project teams to make sure the project is successful.

Pros

Kokosing has really taken off in last 6 years (expanding both geographically and in size/scales of projects) which is allowing for significant growth opportunities similar to other larger top ENR GCs. If you want to base from Ohio there is no better contractor to work for.

Cons

Growth is rapid so understanding of what is normal practice amongst other larger GCs as far as compensation/travel packages is still an ongoing learning curve for Kokosing.
