Pros

Turner is very willing to work with your personal goals/extracurriculars. The work-life balance is pretty good and as a company they've been striving to improve since the industry calls for long hours. It does vary project to project, and depends on the team you are working with. For the most part, the people at Turner are great to work with and make coming to work every day enjoyable.

Cons

The construction industry in general can be very stressful and calls for long hours over certain periods of time, this includes working weekends, second or third shift, etc. Career plan and growth isn't as transparent as it should be, especially in the first few years at Turner. For some reason, what project you're going to be working on next is a big secret (even weeks before your transition) until you reach a certain level of seniority. You're lucky if you find out you're going to a new project a couple weeks in advance.
