Pros

The pay, holidays off, insurance, typical 40 hour work week.

Cons

Horrid management at every level. Also, way too many levels of management. I'm not sure what half the managers do. Something you could normally do in a day yourself working in private industry takes weeks, or even months to achieve. Probably the worst micromanagement I've ever seen. Get treated like a little kid. Also, management typically has no experience in construction or anything related to it. I'm not sure how this place stays afloat.

Pros

Won’t fire anyone, know how much you’re going to make.

Cons

Bad raises. Job growth is very uncommon. Management is incompetent from top to bottom. Not enough people and too much work. Nepotism is rampant in this organization. Unqualified people are promoted. Career bad apples are left without being fired or disciplined. First level managers are useless. They at too much red tape to do the most basic things. Upper levels are arrogant and hard headed.hiring has been frozen for a year yet somehow the ‘bud club’ is promoting people constantly who are in their ‘inner circle’. Hiring actions are super sketchy, names are dropped for specific people to be hired etc. It’s crazy
