Business Outlook
Pros
For those who are willing to work hard and work long hours there is a lot of opportunity in the company to move up quickly and be compensated accordingly. Compensation is performance based, there are some very young individuals in the company who are already project managers and very well paid.
Cons
You have to make some pretty large sacrifices to work for Kiewit. You will be required to move on average once every couple years. The hours are very long, 11-12 hour days are average on a jobsite, you will sometime have to work more, weekends also. Retention rate within the company is horrible, most new hires don't last more than 3-4 years before getting burned out and finding something else.
