Pros

People not in management are some of the hardest working you will meet.

Cons

Women need not apply. Men are worshipped in the company; women are treated like garbage. Men have gotten away with the most disgusting behaviour. HR is there to get the details and then report back to management so they can keep everything quiet. If you are female, please do not apply.

PCL Construction Response

We take allegations like these very seriously and strive to be an inclusive employer of choice. We would like to work with you to investigate this further. Please reach out to your regional or sector HRPD leader or you may also reach out using our confidential PCL Ethics Hotline. Alternatively contact me directly through glassdoor@pcl.com.
