Pros

-These are some of the most welcoming and affable people I have ever worked with -They surround their interns with hoards of experience and resources -They pay higher than most construction internships -They value the fact that their interns are still students and understand it is a learning experience -They have a developed program for interns and will assign mentors to foster creativity and give structure -They are a very large and professional business that is feels corporate at times, but the people make it seem lighten the work place with their welcoming and team mentalities. -They take advantage of advanced technology and implement green building and lean construction into every single one of their projects.

Cons

-It is a corporate company; therefore, there is a large totem pole to climb -Expected to work long hours, but that is also due to the industry's labor intensive qualities and needs.

Pros

Opportunity for advancement is second to none. Support systems and resources are there, hard workers can and will move up in the company quickly. Compensation is what I would describe as competitive/average, you won't get rich but you won't struggle either. Generous PTO offerings and all the bank holidays are paid days off, at least for salaried staff.

Cons

Corporate feel, corporate policies, corporate everything. You need to have a strong stomach for cringe inducing, insufferable corporate nonsense that will be injected in your day to day by executives that have a poor understanding of how to effectively manage trade partners, job site relations, and clients alike. Also, you will work like a dog, work life balance is non existent. The needs of the project or demands of the owner are expected to come first, reinforced by a culture of 'workaholism' that permeates all facets of the company. Typically at least 10 hour days 5 days a week for operations staff, large projects can get far worse than that, like inhumane expectations for work hours and production.
