      Pros

      I spoke with many other employees in the company and they have nothing but praise for Skanska. They were generally very satisfied and proud to be part of the company.

      Cons

      Though there aren't many downsides, one of the cons to the job are the long hours and the blurring between personal life and work life.

      Very political environment with little respect shown to non-management, non-technical personnel.

      Pros

      Internationally, company has an outstanding reputation and is great for your resume. Company provides excellent benefits, is environmentally aware, and is beneficially involved in the respective location's local community. Company is very competitive in the construction arena which provides a reasonably comfortable level of job security. Company's stated, corporate employment policies are exceptional.

      Cons

      In some locations, stated policies exist only on paper while a "good, old boy" environment remains from the previous ownership. Non-management, non-technical personnel are treated with little respect and given no defining career paths. Salaries/bonuses for this group are very mediocre (or less) and long hours/weekends are the norm. Management arrogance is encouraged and perks are given to a select few. Standards are uneven, i.e., some get training, some do not, some are recognized for their dedication, some are not, etc...very uneven atmosphere.
