Checking The Box

Pros

We used to be a company where it was like family. That is what made it a pro. The only other pro is the amount of vacation you receive but only if you can take it.

Cons

All they care about is the bottom line. You have to be a chosen one to move up. It is still a good ole boys club even though they preach diversity. Hence the title of checking the box. Favoritism is rampant from upper management. We no longer care about the people. Absolutely no work life balance.

Wow! I am really surprised by this feedback, but want to thank you for sharing it with us. I am not sure if what you are experiencing is a symptom of the growing pains from all the new work that California Buildings has gotten, or it's deeper than that. I would encourage you to talk to a member of the management team that you feel comfortable with whether it be the VP, DM, or HRPD Manager. If that isn't an option for you, I would encourage you to talk with your manager about your career progression if you are not where you want to be. Also, I wanted to share that as a member of the US head office leadership team, I am actively involved in the Diversity & Inclusion effort and I do know we are making slow and steady progress on that front, particularly with recruitment.
