Pros

Awesome projects, big projects, leading edge with use of technology, BIM

Cons

If you didn't start your career with Mortenson, you're looked down upon. A very strict, good old boys club mentality....promotions are not based upon your skill / results, they are based upon if you fit in with the management team and have "paid your dues". Not a skill/results driven culture, it's a box checking, don't ask questions culture.

Great Work, Vague Ideals

Pros

Great projects to work with, high quality work, as far as a construction company, technologies and methods are advanced compared to others, and great direction towards BIM importance within projects

Cons

Work/Life balance is more of an idea than an actual practice. Company lacks minority representation within the management structure. Frequently bending over backwards to meet client demands outside the requirements made it feel like wasting time in non-value added work.
