Pros

Terracon is a VERY well run business. Management cares about the well-being of employees and helping them do their jobs safely every day. Beyond safety, the company provides excellent benefits and a retirement plan (401k/ESOP) designed to help everyone reach retirement with a nest egg. I came from a larger firm and found Terracon's management refreshing--it is focused on employees and our clients; not stock holders, banks, and executive compensation. Specifically, Terracon is great because it: Provides and encourages the use of safety equipment/PPE--no questions asked and no push back regardless of cost Provides vehicles and the tools needed to do our work--no questions asked and no push back Provides good workspace for employees--no "open" concepts in a sea of desks; real offices and cubes with walls Provides excellent support services from its home office in Olathe with cheerful staff Provides educational opportunities and training necessary to grow Provides freedom to pursue clients and do business locally without excessive overhead

Cons

IT could be a lot better, but then I can't think of anyone with a solid IT department anymore.

Pros

Great senior staff, lots to learn and you are given a lot of opportunities to learn.

Cons

I wish I was paid more, some of the mid-level staff are lazy which can hold you back.
