PCL - where People Come Last

Pros

Increase in experience and knowledge

Cons

Don't expect working hard will be enough to get you deserved recognition unless you are one of the bosses favorites. Only those who spend time sucking up get anywhere. It's hard to get ahead when those in charge arent better managed by their managers. If you speak up you end up with a target on your back and eventually forced out.

PCL Construction Response

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. It’s disappointing to see that this is your perception of career advancement and recognition within our company. Please be assured that our goal is to foster performance and to reward all employees fairly for their contributions and results. We highly encourage you to discuss this with your district HRPD representative – they would be happy to address your concerns and to answer any questions you may have.
