Can be a great place to work

Pros

The company has a long history of success in the region which ultimately provides employees with an opportunity to work on some of the most prestigious projects within this market. Senior management is people focused.

Cons

There is very limited potential for career growth past middle management. The company is essentially managed by two individuals and will likely remain that way for the foreseeable future.

Pros

Turner is a great place to experience challanging projects and build problem solving skills. You learn about yourself and what type of responsibilites you can handle.

Cons

There is no work life balance. If you want to be a positive, contributing member of your team, you have zero time for a social life. 12 hour days, 5 days in a row are standard. Younger guys get the shaft from upper management.

Pros

Turner can be a wonderful place to work overall. Turner has a stated well-defined culture based on the most honorable values and they employ systems based on the most sound construction management and business principles. Turner University provides tremendous opportunity for self improvement and a readily available guide to learn their systems. Financially successful management will be rewarded. Projects are among the most exciting and interesting ones being built. Salaries are generous and compensation is sometimes made for extra levels of output that are requested of an employee. Turner has within its ranks some of the finest and most talented people.

Cons

Although Turner exhibits ethical values overall, self serving paths are sometimes chosen over paths that are consistent with stated core values. Regional management sometimes heeds official requirements in appearance only. Performance reviews can be highly manipulated and more non-confrontational than to-the-point. Turner is not immune to common large company problems such as tolerated nonproductive personnel and bad eggs unknown to upper management.
