Pros

Independence in work. Lots of opportunities for advancement. Able to see various location throughout North America. Never the same job throughout the years. Opportunities are at various locations and ever changing as we get different work in various locations. With a lack of labour in the construction markets there is great opportunities for advancement.

Cons

Travel and locations of work. Generally required to go to remote locations for the work. Camp jobs are numerous and require a committment. Work and life balance is minimal expected to be married to the company and go where and when they require. In some ways it is similar to being in the army.

Pros

They offer an incredible training package that is a leader amongst the industry. Other companies recognize your work experience at Kiewit, and will attempt to headhunt you once you have completed your ~4 years of training. Great company to work at when you are young and starting.

Cons

Such a large company that you can fall between the cracks. You also can be sent to work anywhere without much say in it. On Thursday you can be told that your plane leaves on Sunday, and that you are being relocated to go to work on a project. Tough company to work for when you are getting around 30 years old and want to settle down and have a family.
