Thanks for your feedback! Safety must always come first so that we can send everyone home in the same condition every day. Much of our success as a company comes from solid mentorship and training, so it's disappointing to hear that you didn't learn new skills. We're always looking for ways to improve and encourage you to share details of your experience with us at glassdoor@pcl.com.
