Pros

Very diverse and welcoming employer, will give lots of a people a chance to prove themselves. Decent employee benefits with commuter vehicles and stock option plan. Overall company culture does really reflect how much they care about you individually. Quickly growing field and company so there are options for advancement. PTO and benefits available to every employee immediately after starting employment.

Cons

Pay seems to be a little lower than industry standard across the board. They will make you work for months in the position you’re taking before actually promoting/paying you for it. Health Insurance isn’t great. Sometimes with working for a company this large it feels like upper management and corporate is completely disconnected from the day to day employees that make the company run and be profitable. This company definitely has a habit of overcommitting to work that it doesn’t have enough employees to actually handle effectively. Often leads to burnout and bad work-life balance.

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.
