I was promised many things when I joined PCL that never came including a detailed timeline for my advancement at my interview. It was all a lie, they just wanted a sucker to fall for their trap, work them like a dog with 50+ hour weeks and then toss you in the trash at the slightest slowdown. My feeling its cheaper for them to lay you off and then find a new sucker in a few months.
When you are there expect tons of backstabbing from your colleagues . They will smile in your face as they stab you in the back. A superintendent told me to my face he thought I was a corporate spy for a competitor (he named them, I won't say it here). Extremely unprofessional group of people.
I was laid off with 3 weeks working notice and boy was I thankful I found another job I could immediately go to.
Lets not forget the PCL College of Construction. what a joke. You are expected to do it all on your time after working 50-60 hour work weeks. Oh, and don't expect them to pay for any classes either
Pay is really bad too, the benefits are so so
