Tough company

Business Outlook

Pros

Good on resume. Lots of good training that is yours and not the companies. The training applies no matter who you work for.

Cons

The stress of this job is almost unbearable at times. Everything from moving to salary to keeping your job in general is hung over your head at all times.

Must be at peace with long hours and relocation. Success is ready and available for smart/hard workers.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good money, fairly good bennifits. Get to live in new places. Freedom to aplly oneself and be rewarded with more work and responsability. Get to be apart of some amazing jobs that large companies like Kiewit are capable of building.

Cons

The endless policies that are designed to ease the liability of being such a large company. The almost mindless brainwashing of young new recruits to achieve the goal of less liability. Young managment full of inexperience and costly mistakes. Relocation may be a con but if one is to stay with a company one must travel to where that company has work. Long hours may be a con but if you want to be success at anything the key is you must apply your time.

Compensation is competitive, 401K match is decent, will offer steady employment.

Managers expect 55-60+ hours a week even if only 40 are required. Promotions are often not merit based.
