Overall the company is on the cutting edge for Technology in the Construction Industry

Business Outlook

Pros

The resources they provide for their employees are plenty. A well polished organization in training and having the most up to date technological advances in the industry.

Cons

High Turnover. A lot of CEO changes and a lot of income producing long standing managers were let go due to the market and personality concerns. Minority firms wishing to get subcontracting work with Skanska is pretty slim unless you have some connections higher up with the present district VP's. They hold a lot of outreach for minority firms but they don't practice what they preach.
