Business Outlook
Pros
A sense of accomplishment because of the large well-known projects that one gets to work on. Pay is very well due to the long hours. Hourly wage is a bit below a 40 hour job though. Kiewit is an excellent place for young engineers to gain construction experience which is very practical for consulting engineering. Kiewit offers a lot of in house training from on-site training to going to Omaha for week long courses. All expense paid. Get an extra week off during Christmas time when senior management recognizes their employees also have a family and a life outside of work.
Cons
Very long hours, possible shift work and sometimes have to work on weekends.
