Pros

Great entry level to get a idea of the field. Fantastic middle management guys. Options to try a little bit of everything Environmental Consulting related

Cons

Terrible upper/highest management Will not promote or give raises based on skills, only care about seniority and time given to the company After 2ed year you will be pidgin-holed into doing one thing

Pros

You have sustainable hours for construction but there is mandatory overtime (The most I’ve done is 51 hours in a week), they pay you enough to live on, it’s good experience, upper management pays lip service to workers rights, there is genuine concern and regulation from management to provide you an emotionally and physically safe place to work, you’re never really rushed to do your job, and you do have the right to stop work

Cons

You need a degree in engineering or geology to move up and you have to threaten to move offices or take another job to get a pay raise. It’s not unionized.
